So about 3 weeks ago, my PC said it had a hard disk failure (my SSD) and couldn't load the OS. So I opened up my machine, unplugged the sata cables and the power cables to the hard disks and then plugged them all back in to see if that would help. I tried rebooting the machine, but the machine wouldn't POST.
I took the machine over to a friend and he said the mobo was completely dead, he couldn't get any boot codes out of his internal mobo speaker. So I RMA'd my mobo and when it arrived, i was still having the same issue.
So i figured it was either my CPU or PSU so i RMA'd both and also bought new memory (wanted an upgrade). When i got all the new components, i tried assembling it again with the minimum amount of components and it STILL didn't post or give me any beep codes.
The fans to the cpu are working, there are lights on the mobo, the cpu gets warm but i am getting 0 beep codes.
I am starting to think that my RMA'd mobo was DOA. Does this sound like a fair assumption? what else can i try?
I have checked the compatibility of all my components and they are correct, but i will list them here:
CPU: intel i5 4670k MOBO: MSI z87-g45
Memory: Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1600 2x4gb
PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA 1000 P2 1000W 80+ Platinum
BTW this PC has been running fine for over a year. Not sure what happened
