PLEASE HELP!
so I am pretty experienced with everything from troubleshooting PCs to networking. I have my CompTIA A+, Net+, Sec+, CCNA, and AWS cloud practitioner, yet I can't figure out my own PC issue. PLEASE SAVE ME! lol
Current build:
MOBO - MSI B550A-Pro
CPU - Ryzen 5 3600X
GPU - MSI 3070 ti
RAM - Corsair 2x8gb LPX 3600
PSU - Gamemax 850W
Storage - silicon power 512bg m.2 (OS installed on it) and 4 TB Seagate HDD
Okay so here's my issue.. for Christmas my wife got my a ryzen 7 5800x CPU and 2x16gb corsair vengeance RAM. Like a dummy I didn't upgrade my bios before installing my new CPU and after installing all my new toys everything went to crap.
First my boot light on my MOBO was on so I repeated my m.2 that holds my OS and that didn't work. Then I tried switching back to my old CPU and RAM while simultaneously removing my CMOS battery and unplugging my PSU and MOBO cables and draining them to reset the bios configurations and even after reverting back to my old stuff that won't work either. I reseated all my cables going to my MOBO and PSU and that didn't work, and I even reseated my CPU and RAM and that didn't work. I've plugged directly jnto my MOBO HDMI and I still get nothing on my monitors and now after all my troubleshooting my VGA light turns on for a while first before switching to the boot light. This is the biggest pickle I've had with my own setup and I really don't know what else to do. I even checked the wattage on everything to make sure my 850w PSU can handle it and it does. PLEASE FREAKING HELP ME LOL!
