Hello,
I've purchased a MSI FM2-A75IA-E53 and a Richland A4-4000. Since it won't boot at all, I read that the mainboard requires a BIOS update, and in order to do this, it requires also a Trinity APU. So, I bought a Trinity A4-5300 but it won't POST either. Then, I tried to remove the battery, clear CMOS and switched on => I could hear a long beep followed by 2 short beeps, and nothing else (black screen). I also noticed a surprising thing: I turned off then turned on again => no more beep, nothing. But if I removed battery.reset CMOS, then I could hear the long beep+2 short beeps. Once. Each time it would beep once, and only once, until I remove battery/clear CMOS again.
Do you have any idea about what it could be? Normally 1 long beep+2short beep = bad display adapter, but well, my APU does have a IGP and must be able to display something right? I tested both onboard VGA and HDMI output, both unsuccessfully.
Thanks in advance for your help. Regards.
