Question Asus z790 plus 8 red lights on back

[idrop]

Hey everyone. So as the title says, multiple red lights on the back of my motherboard. PC isn't booting, GPU and fans, ssd, etc. are all unplugged. It's just the CPU, PSU, RAM and motherboard.

I tried looking in the manual with no luck, and every red light issue I look up is related to the 4 LEDs on the upper right hand corner.

Edit: See below for troubleshooting steps I have done already.

Sorry, I wasn't asking about turning off the LEDs. I was saying that my PC isn't booting and the LEDs are all solid red (before, they were cycling through colors when my PC was shut down)

I just tested my PSU on a different system and it works by the way. I did the CMOS reset, tried different RAM slots, checked all connections, GPU is fine, no loose screws or anything of the sort.

You haven't said what the Q-LEDs on the motherboard are doing, and they should be doing something when you try to boot.

They aren't doing anything. No activity upon trying to boot, no fans on the PSU. Just the LEDs on the back are on and they aren't cycling like they normally would.

then your system isn't even trying to boot at all

Double check to make sure all of the power connectors on the motherboard are plugged in. Then try shorting the power switch connector on the motherboard to see if it does anything, but if not you've likely got a dead motherboard or PSU.

I did double check all of the connectors and tried my PSU on my old build and husband's build (same as my current one now). It works fine. Even tried his PSU on mine and nothing.

I haven't tried shorting it yet, but the motherboard is 3 months old and under warranty, so I'm just going to send it back at this point. Thank you for your help though, I really do appreciate it!
