Title: LED Error 53 on Boot
Post by: whgragso on December 07, 2012, 02:36:58 pm

Hello,

I recently purchased the GIGABYTE G1.Sniper 3 LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Extended ATX Intel Motherboard with i5-3450, 2 x 4GB DDR3 1333, 700W Xion ATX PSU, with 2 x Western Digital VelociRaptor WD1500HLHX 10000RPM Sata 6.0 drives.

I have installed everything and double checked all the connections. I have rotated the memory modules with every possible combination. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thanks

could be a memory compatability issue.  do you have more to try?

Here is the link to the motherboard:

Here is a link to the memory:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820148624

The motherboard says that it accepts DDR3 1333 and the memory is DDR3 1333 (PC3 10600)

You've ordered server (ecc) memory.  the board will only take non-ecc memory.
