Hi guys, the past 2 days i trying to get this setup to work. As soon as i turn it on i hear the PSU turn on and the CPU fan, but there are no visuals, my screen stays on stand by. The Debug Code on the motherboard repeats 3 codes: 10 - 19 - 55

After reading a bunch of people's topics on various websites i found several supposed solutions.
Here are the ones i found and tried out.

- Check CPU pins - I used a magnifying glass and desk lamp to see if of all pins are still straight and they were. The employee at the store where i bought the MB checked the pins before i bought it as well. Reseated CPU and placed heatsink.

- Reset CMOS, i was hoping this would cut it, turned of PSU, disconnected power cable and removed CMOS battery, for a few minutes. Placed it and turned on PC, only to see it do exactly the same.

- Connected 2 different screens both on on board VGA and on the GT 730.
and still no display

-Test memory, i tried all 4 DIMMS, no luck
I placed 2 DIMMS in slots 1 and 3, no luck
I placed 2 DIMMS in slots 2 and 4, no luck
Tried 1 DIMM in every slot, all 16 combinations and no luck.

Should i try buying other RAM, i read a lot of people did have issues with some lesser brands, but i also ran into people with problems with Kingston or Corsair modules.

A lot of people have the same Debug Code, but i can't seem to find an answer except for RMA, i haven't slept for 2 days and i really need my desktop to be running ASAP.

If i left anything out please ask me i will respond as fast as possible with additional info!!

Thanks in Advance!
 


Thanks i7baby im on it straight away.

 
I followed all the 23 steps, and i either did them correct or checked them afterwards. Guess i will sleep for 4 hours and be the first one in the store to get me 2 new DIMMS. I will keep you updated.
 
That did it, i put in the DIMMS and right away it booted to bios saying new hardware detected. I appreciate you took the time to look at this post i7Baby! Your a great and nice fella!!
