So i moved all my working components to a new enclosure and now my pc wont post. I was originally getting q code 77 but now am getting q code 76.

So far i have tried:
-removing mobo from case and checking for a missing or misplaced standoff. None found, tightened stand offs and reinstalled to case
-tried posting outside enclosure with just one stick of memory and no gpu or HD. No change
-removed cpu and cooler: no bent pins, cleaned and reapplied thermal paste. No change

I'm at my wits end, is there anything else that i can try or do i just need to start trying to replace components? I'm hesitant to trying to load everything back into my old case since the problem was present when i booted outside the case. Any help or ideas would be appreciated.

Specs:
Mobo: Asus z87pro
CPU: Core i5-4690K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor
GPU: Asus GeForce GTX 970 4GB STRIX Video Card
PSU: Corsair Builder 600w
RAM: G Skill Ripjaw X 16gm DDR3-1600

Reset CMOS to clear the error code.
There is a 3-pin jumper on your motherboard labeled (CLRTC) to clear the CMOS.
Turn off the computer and unplug the power cord.
Move the jumper cap from pins 1-2 ( default ) to pins 2-3 and leave it for about 10 seconds, then move the cap back to pins 1-2.
Plug the power cord and turn ON the computer.
You might need to enter the BIOS to re-enter any data you previously changed.

Thanks for the suggestions, as i stated in my original post i did already do those things but was unsuccessful at clearing the code. Originally i had a standoff in the wrong place but the board would power up for a moment before restarting. Moving the standoff to the correct position (this board uses the indented top left ATX standoff) stopped the restarting cycle but the code remained
