Hey all,
I've signed up to the forum tonight, as I've been trouble shooting for a few days and the references here have gotten me along so far.
However I think I've reached a stumbling block I can't seem to get past. Or at least another Whiskey isn't going to help.
GPU: AMD Radeon™ R9 290X 4GB Lightening Edition
CPU: i7 4790 Quad Core
MOBO: ASUS VII Ranger
PSU: Aerocool Integrator Gold 1000W 80+ Gold
RAM: 4 x Asus Motherboard Maximus VII Ranger, 8GB DDR3 PC3-10600 1333MHz 240-pin DIMM (Only 1 or 2 seated, as had display issues with two or more in troubleshooting)
Disk: SanDisk Ultra Flair 150MB/s USB 3.0 Flash Drive - 64GB
The PSU and Disk are items I have bought new to supplement the build, but was looking to use *Old parts as much as possible, as money is tight.
Problem/Context:
I was able to reach the BIOS using all the above components aside from an old SSD, but when trying to boot I believe the drive was corrupt. I attempted a Windows repair, and wipe, but it just stopped half way through. No biggie, I'll get a new drive.
I've now installed the new drive, however on boot (Including a USB with WIN11 on) the rig gets stuck on no display, and various MOBO errors such as
A0 - IDE initialization is started
A1 - IDE Reset
A2 - IDE Detect
AE - Legacy Boot event
Not sure how to progress the build from here as I can't get to the BIOS to choose a Boot method, just assumed on power on it would default to the USB drive. (I have tried a CMOS clear, but no change)
Many thanks,
