Hello everybody.. I have a Gigabyte x99 Gaming 7 Motherboard and it shows an error code of 73 in the little screen it has.. i searched the motherboards manual and it sais it is [ PCH DXE initialization (PCH module specific) ].. Does anyone knows what is this and if it is harmfull for my pc? Also do you know how i can fix it?

Hi, If restarting the PC, what code getting?

 

[aperos46]

it goes through the normal check as all the other times and before getting on desktop it goes on 73

 

[alexoiu]

Are you running the latest BIOS version?
Was it like that from the beginning? If not, have you recently added a new component?

at this time curretly im running the f7 bios.. there is f8 bios but its still beta... this error appeared when i cleaned up my pc and reassemble it back.. but everything is like before

Hard to say, then.
Maybe leaving only bare minimum components, see if still 73.

everything i have on the pc is needed.. its an intel i7 5820k, a evga gtx 970 ftw, a corsair h100i, a thermaltake 630w psu, 4dims ddr4 ram,the motherboard, an ssd and a hard drive.. do you thing something of them causes the error?

Is the 100i connected like in http://www.corsair.com/en-us/blog/2013/february/how-to-install-the-hydro-series-h100i-cpu-cooler ?

hi.. sorry for not responding but i was not home.. yes the h100i is connected as it shows

Try leaving single RAM module installed. Test different slots. See if still 73.
