New Mobo/CPU = No Video Signal.

Master Yunk · 26-January-08, 11:54 AM

Like the title says.

Well I got my new parts (Phenom 9600 | ASUS M2R32-MVP )

I strapped everything down, I power up. And I get zero video signal. I haven't a clue what the hell it is. The board's power lamp lights up, but the Ethernet port doesn't.

Do i have a DOA? or could it possibly be with my having a dual boot (stupid question?)

BeetleMan · 26-January-08, 12:02 PM

what bios version on the board?

your board doesn't "support" quad core officialy but maybe with new bios...?
& i think BeetleMan may be right you may need an Bios update
ASUSTeK Computer Inc.-Support-

As for getting a new motherboard always better of formatting & reinstalling windows otherwise you're looking for troubles.

BTW: if you can get an AM2+ mobo you'll be better off in the long run , but i dont know if there is a good one out there?

BeetleMan · 26-January-08, 12:49 PM

Bios 1009 supports Phenom, BUT locks the multiplier to 5x..

Do you have another processor to try with?(non-phenom)

Slaymate · 26-January-08, 12:58 PM

Is it doing anything? Are you getting any beeps? If your getting nothing you should
check to see if your grounding out the mobo on a standoff. Check your 24 pin connector
and the 4 pin cpu connector. The compatibility chart says you need bios 1009 to
support the new cpu's. You may need an older cpu to flash it though. Try booting it
up with just 1 stick of ram. Try the other stick if it still doesn't work. Try unplugging
other devices. Pull the video card out and see if it beeps? If you've got a spare PS
try that to.

Master Yunk · 27-January-08, 12:20 AM

I get no Beeps or anything. Manual said check jumper settings, so I reset it(lol).

I currently have a 4200+ Im running on, so I should try booting up with that?

Seesh, I'm going to freak out trying to remove this phenom...

BigAkita · 27-January-08, 12:50 AM

What kind of PSU are you running?

Master Yunk · 27-January-08, 11:20 AM

Ultra X-finity 550.

Is your 4200+ a socket AM2 cpu? If it is then I would try it. Otherwise I
would remove the mobo from the case and hook it all up with the mobo
on the box, or another non-conductive surface. I would try swapping
parts with your 4200+ system. Power Supply and video at least :-)

BeetleMan · 27-January-08, 11:59 AM

I'm still wondering what bios version the installation cd came with.... got a feeling it's not version 1009 or newer, and it simply don't recognize your Phenom...

Looking at that Newegg link, it don't say it supports Phenom - which it does with newer Bios..

Master Yunk · 27-January-08, 04:24 PM

I'm back, running on Phenom. Yeah it turned out to be the BIOS after all.

I believe it was 0900 BIOS.

Too bad a SATA connector on my HDD got stripped, and I just almost died on the highway.

Ups and downs... Ups and downs...

BeetleMan · 27-January-08, 04:27 PM

Glad to see you got it resolved

Master Yunk · 29-January-08, 01:07 PM

This thing haunts me to no end. After everything has been running fine, on first boot it posts, then hits a random BSOD, so fast I can't even read it. The second time through, it gives me the options of "What I'd like to do, due to the failed boot", I hit normal and it goes through.

I've removed my soundcard, to no avail, I'm about to run memtest, but my memory hasn't given me any guff before.

Soulutions?

You did reformat right? With the new parts? Sounds like driver problems!!

Master Yunk · 29-January-08, 02:25 PM

Yep, reformatted.

Slaymate · 30-January-08, 08:14 PM

I'm gonna say it's the mobo. At least it sounds mobo'ish to me.
And I've had alot of mobo's :-)

BeetleMan · 30-January-08, 09:04 PM

any overclock at all? Cooling efficient? all power connectors connected to mobo?

Highperf15 · 30-January-08, 09:17 PM

Well, narrow it down.......

PSU

mobo

Vid card

or cables.
