Hi.
Quite a strange one I have here and please excuse my ignorance. So, I have just bought a motherboard and when I put it in my system everything freaks out. Everything will turn on and then switch off, excluding the motherboard itself. A green light persists even when everything else doesn't.
Anyways, the motherboard is an ASUS P8Z77-V LX. I am also putting in a new I7 3770k as well as two sticks of 8GB DDR3 1666 MHZ ram. Currently I have eliminated the CPU being the problem as it is recognized in my old motherboard, just not supported.
The ram again in another motherboard is shown to be working, just not supported. My PSU is an EVGA 400w and works perfectly after I put in all of my old components so I do not believe that was causing the issue, and I even unplugged my GPU on the ASUS board to see if it was possible the PSU didn't have enough power to support everything to no avail. Please help as i really don't want $100 to go down the drain.
