Hi,
Well i took it to the ASUS support in my area and they "supposedly" updated my bios.
I re-installed all my parts and tried to boot, now the computer just turns on for a split second, fans start, leds etc, then powers off.
The red-debug led lights up for the CPU. So obviously the cpu is still the problem somehow.
Ive refitted it, tested another PSU and taken the motherboard out of box to check for shorts.
All the same, still get the red-debug light for cpu.
Interestingly i figured that maybe if i just clear the cmos and try reflash through the BIOS flashback method hopefully something might happen, the funny thing is it wont accept any of the .CAP files for my bios, it does however accept any of the .ROM files, leading me to beleive that the ASUS tech guy didn't in fact update my bios correctly.
My concern and question lies in the fact that it turns on for a split second , then turns off and repeats this "cycle" until i unplug.
Does any1 have any experience with incompatible CPU's and trying to boot? is this to be expected? or possibly is something else wrong?
I ran across a forum about another guy with the same problem, he ended up just buying a BIOS from the store with the correct BIOS installed and that worked for him. He didn't however mention if it did the on off cycle but did mention that the red LED for cpu was on and that it didnt post or show any error messages, Kinda like mine.
Just to confirm i am trying to install the i7 4820k on the Rampage iV GENE board, i have G.skill 1866mhz memory and a 850 VANTEC voltra PSU. Its all new parts.
Any1 got any advice?
