GA-890GPA-UD3H(rev. 2.1) no boot

My system refused to boot after a restart, no post, beeps or fan power. I'm guessing that the problem is with either the MB or the PSU (Cooler Master GX-550W) after stripping most other components out, but have no idea how to tell which it is... my feeling is that I'll be returning the motherboard to Gigabyte, but if anyone could give me a good diagnostic to positively identify the culprit before I RMA it, that would be great :-)

Hi there,

sorry to say that unless you have some good diagnostic and test equipment the only simple way to check things is to try the board with a different PSU.

Remember, when all else fails a cup of tea and a good swear will often help! It won't solve the problem but it will make you feel better.
