Trying To Use BIOS FLASHBACK Z87-PRO

[NariCS]

I'm having an issue I just built a new pc and I can't even get it to boot up. No display or anything.. I've been sitting here for nearly 3 hours trying to flash back the bios on my Z87-PRO as I'm using a i5-4690k processor and I need to update the bios in order to use that CPU.
Well, I get the cap file... - However there is no renamer tool anymore on the ASUS website and I've searched how to rename it without the tool but I can't find anything.
Any help would be really appreciated.

What are the last 4 digits on a sticker like https://www.guru3d.com/miraserver/images/2011/990fx-sabertooth/IMG_4499.jpg ?

Then CPU is supported: https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/Z97PRO/HelpDesk_CPU/
No need to use the Flashback.

Then I suppose I am having another issue?
What's happening now is, when the ATX CPU Power is plugged in, I turn on the computer and it just keeps turning off and on off and on... However when the CPU power is unplugged in turns on just fine.

Try leaving single RAM module installed. Make sure that it's properly inserted (latches in locked position). Test each slot.

 

[NariCS]

I tried a single stick in each slot, turned it off and back on. No results. It just turns on and off, and on and off.

Try removing all wires and components from the motherboard. Leave only CPU and CPU fan installed, both 24 and 8 pin power cables connected. Start the board by shortly touching with a screwdriver the 2 pins on the motherboard corresponding to the case power button. See if the CPU fan does spin without stopping.

 

[NariCS]

Okay, touching where with the screw driver?

 

[alexoiu]

Check the board's manual for the 2 pins on the system panel header where you connect the wires from the case power button.

 

[NariCS]

Give me a sec... - Sorry. Gotta find it. Haha.

 

[NariCS]

Okay, I found the header, but what pins do I touch with the screw driver?

 

[alexoiu]

The PWR_BTN and GND.

 

[NariCS]

Okay, I did it - It's still doing it. It just powers up and then powers down, and then repeats.

 

[NariCS]

Does it matter that the PSU is still plugged into the Optical Drive and Hard Drive?

 

[alexoiu]

It's good to remove all unneeded components and wires. Is the CPU fan properly installed?

 

[NariCS]

Yeah, I just have the fan in. I don't have the other thermal part in. Just the fan. I'm using the Hyper 212 Evo.

 

[NariCS]

Still doing it...

 

[alexoiu]

Can you pot a picture of the motherboard?

 

[NariCS]

No problem - Give me a moment.

[alexoiu]

The CPU fan is not installed?

 

[NariCS]

It's plugged in. It's just off to the side, I don't have the thermal part over top of it.

 

[alexoiu]

Then that's the reason of the restarts. The CPU overheats. I suggest testing after properly seating it.

 

[NariCS]

Okay, let me seat it all properly, however before this ever happened. When I booted it up, the CPU LED would turn red... and there was an error code 00 under it, have any idea about that? That was my main issue before this started.
