Hi all its my first time installing this board and im having issues and need help. I turn it on and there is no display on my TV. The second light is solid yellow. And the number in top corner flashes 13 then goes to 53. Any help would be great. As I'm currently without a PC and using my phone to make this post.

I'm still stuck...though I made progress but not sure what happend. I reinstalls my old board and everything just so I could get a bios update on a USB stick. Go to install new board again. And this time round I had a screen and managed to get into bios and. Windows but I noticed something was wrong because only one of my sticks of ram was lighting up and then finding that windows as well as the bios was only detecting one stick of ram. So thinking maybe it was a bad stick I took them out and tested every slot single with one. And none lit up and I was back to not getting a display. So I tried seating both sticks in every possible combination...and I'm back to were I started with a PC that turns on but with no display .....can anyone help me?? Im totally lost as to what to do and at thus point I really dont want to have to keep switching out mother boards back and forward. I don't have much tim left as it is. As iv used most of it up having to apply it everyrime I make the switch. Please help

You definitely have memory issues.
If you are getting Qcode 53 that is Memory initialization error. Either wrong timings or incompatible.
What memory sticks are you running and are they on the QVL list.

It seems to be working now. I had to reseat the memory. Press CMOS button on back and I could access the bios and set the xmp profile.
