red CPU led - Page 2

itsakjt · Nov 26, 2012, 04:36 PM

Connect the motherboard speaker(beeper), remove the RAM and boot up. See if you hear a series of beeps. If yes- Your CPU and mobo is fine. I don't trust CPU LED. Also try resetting the CMOS via the jumper and also the battery-remove and remount everything from scratch final.

specs:

-i7 2600k
-corsair vengeance 8gb

out of interest, are all the fans running on the psu, cpu etc?

If so, what brand/wattage PSU you running? and what other components do you have installed besides the mobo, chip & ram.... it could be that your power supply isnt up to powering it all.
(If its a multi rail psu you may have everything running off one rail and the psu cant cope)

aaah ok scratch that suggestion then

Do you not see anything at all on screen?
for now i could only suggest you that you take out the cmos battery for at least 5min and to take out the cpu check pins and reseat it, if that doesn't fix the issue you might have done something during the move that resulted in this issue

nothing shows onscreen "no signal detected" i've already reseated the cpu, no diference. would it be safe to assume that its the MB thats broke? Should i buy a new one?

Red CPU LED on my Crosshair V Formula as well ended up just shipping it off to Asus tried multiple CPU's, ram, VGA's etc. Hopefully yours is something simpler than that. I have one off my Xeon X3440, but it is an LGA1156 cooler so I do not know if it will fit. Assuming you are CONUS you can have it for whatever shipping is.

update guys, upon further close inspection of the motherboard, about half of the system panel connector(where you connect the power, restart, etc..case cables) has a brownish color, seems burnt and the restart button does not work, could this be the reason?
