Question GIGABYTE X299 AORUS Master constant blinking white light

[jimmy757]

Hi everybody. After plugged in bad USB hub in the USB 3.0 port, PC won't start. instead it constantly blink a white light and click sound. I disconnected everything and removed graphic card and memory. But the CPU still there. I THINK the power supply is good because i use the special plug to test it and the fan started. I also cleared CMOS. Is there a minimum i must have on a motherboard to boot? Like at least 1 memory stick? Should I try with nothing I mean take SSD and CPU out? I don't even get an error code on the 2 digits error code. I am not an expert like some of you. Please help! Thank you.

How did you verify that the hub was bad?

I apologize for missing info. Because I mistaken a USB 4 port charging hub to just a hub. the hub smell a bit burning. Obviously i unplugged it fast but too late. So think i basically sent 5 volts to a USB port and short something. Very upsetting. $700 mobo. This morning i tested with a voltmeter pins from the power supply. All good. I took everything off the mobo and only connected system fan and tried. Same white light flashing. BUT here an interesting fact. The fan of the power supply works when I connect a jumper to the cable and turn it on. But plugged in the mobo when I turn on power supply, the power supply fan does not work. Any other suggestions? Thank you.
