M3a32-mvp Deluxe/wifi-ap

Hi guys,

I currently have the following issue:

When I turn the power on the mobo lights up and the fans spin and everything. Ya would think it would seem fine but I get no display, no post beeps. nothing at all.

I have tried each stick of ram in each slot, I have tried resetting the cmos/bios. Taken the battery out, taken the cpu out and placed it back. Tried each of my 3870s on there own to eliminate the gfx etc etc.. and still nothing shows on the display

any help would be appreciated

thanks

I had the same problem when I first started using my M3A32-MVP MB.

I ended up having to hard reset the Bios.

I was told by someone here to unplug the power cord, move the Bios jump to reset, and then remove the Bios Battery and leave it out over night.

Well I did all that but as most things I couldn't wait over night and after 4 hours I put everything back to normal and it started right up.

Now this worked for me, but I can't say this will fix your probelm but its worth a try..

Good luck

If i get it right the thing you replaced is your motherboard, and you used your old HD without removing your Windows instal. In that case the hardware has changed so drasticly that your have 2 remove the bios bat (CMOS) and hold down the power button when connected 2 the mobo ofcopurse for like 60 seconds. Also i would advice you remving all extra hardware that your don t need to start up the computer with.

Hope it helps it always does for me. If nothing els will make sure it will run you should contact your supplier and make sure you get a new because u have a doa mobo.

hmm. I think your BIOS is outdated. So you need to run the mobo on an older chip , flash it and then go back and switch the chip.

I also have this problem when I'm screwing around in the bios. My process is:
1: Unplug power cord from PSU
2: Set CMOS jumper to pins 2-3
3: Remove CMOS battery and count 10sec
4: Replace CMOS battery
5: Set CMOS jumper to pins 1-2 and plug the power cord back in

Turn it on and you should get the bios screen with the "Press F1 blah blah"
