Before I start. I want to specify 3 things 1. Ive read all i can, AND done everything. Ive cleared the cmos, ive checked all cables, the graphic card Is working, all pins are straight, the cpu is compatible, ive conected the f panel correctly, ive conected both 24 and 8 -12 Volt pin correctly, the SSD works correctly.

2. I have an
Aorus 450m Pro Wifi
Athlon 3000g and Ryzen 5 5600x
Edge z600
Adata Xpg 8gb ram
Kingston Kc 2500 500gb

3. It just lights up the red cpu light, with no display. All fans work correctly.

Ive become desesperate, anoyed and confused, i have basically changed everything and nothing works. I really want help, please on gods mame, help
 
This motherboard?

[Do verify that I found the applicable User Manual.]

Red CPU light: You are referring the CPU status LED as shown on physically numbered Page 22 of the User Manual - correct?

PSU being that Edge z600 correct?

IS the PSU the original? Or otherwise new, refurbished, or used? How old? History of heavy gaming use?

My thought is that the PSU has failed in some manner. Remember that PSUs provide different voltage rails (3, 5, 12) serving different system components. A failure of any voltage or rail can mean that other components may work or some LED still lights up.

Do you have another available known working PSU to swap in? Remember do not mix and match PSU cables with cables from other PSUs.
 
Hi, thanks for answering. Yes, thats the correct manual as well as the 22 page. The psu Is 3 years old at this Time, bought brand new. Ever since i bought i've gamed every week, nearly every day. With medium perfomance games. And I do not have another working PSU
 
Unfortunately all that makes the PSU a likely suspect.

Without another PSU (new, used) to swap in then things are at a bit of a dead end.

PSU's can be tested to some extent but doing so requires a multi-meter and someone who knows how to use it. Ask family and friends.

Not a full test because the PSU is not under load. However, any voltages out of tolerance are a sign that the PSU is no longer fully functional.

You might try scaling back to some minimal configuration. Pull the GPU for example and use integrated graphics if supported by the build. No overclocking, etc..

General idea being to reduce power demands and determine if the PSU will be able to power at least that much.

So. I went to check my computer with my friend, at the beggining. It did boot to bios, then It just stopped. I changed everything at my friends. The cpu, gpu, ram. AND still have the cpu red light. What do i do now

could be a mobo fault, could also be a corrupted bios if you were in the bios screen and doing some thing it stop, when a software have missing part it stop or close...
try replacing the psu and running the pc with only cooler cpu and rams, if it continue to don t start with a different psu, try cpu and rams in a different mobo(if you can).
You have already tryed changing cpu and ram so the problem is or the mobo or the psu at this time(probably the mobo if you already used the psu, see if in the socket there is something wrong but with caution)

If only the cpu red light is on and not also the boot or bios light also mean that you actually entered in the os(as the manual say) so the problem is 100% or the mobo or the psu, and probably is the mobo
