Story goes like this.. My mobo on Computer-1 spoilt and I got a new mobo + cpu.. Fixed it up and works fine. Few mins later, my GPU started spinning at 100% rate and display stopped working.

Then I used my Computer-2 to test the GPU. Put it back and forth a few times and somehow it works again on my Computer-1.

So here's the problem. When I tried to switch on my Computer-2 the next day, it started beeping non-stop (short beep) and monitor can't detect any signal. CPU fan is spinning, I see the mobo red lights are on. Computer-2 was working well before I test my GPU of Computer-1.

Things I've tried...
  1. Unplug everything and put it back again
  2. Resit the Ram
  3. Use only 1 Ram at a time at different positions
  4. Use a working CPU and test on Computer-2
  5. Remove bios battery and push down the power button 15secs
  6. Use another working PSU to test
  7. Remove everything except Hdd, Ram and CPU to test
  8. Remove everything except Ram and CPU to test
  9. Use eraser to rub the gold part of the RAM to clean it
  10. Connect power plug direct to wall socket

Everything I tried gave the same result. Beep non stop and monitor can't detect signal. Below are the specs. Please HELP!!

Update:
  • I noticed LED_D1 is lit up but LED_D2 is not (there's a chart on the mobo, it says it's Memory Error)

Computer-1:
Processor: Intel Core i5-7400 3.0Ghz Quad Core Processor

Mainboard: Gigabyte 270M-D3H LGA1151 M-ATX Mother Board

Graphic Card: Sapphire HD 6950 2GB

Memory: Crucial 8GB DDR4 2133mhz

Power Supply Unit: Seasonic M12II Bronze 620W ATX12V

Computer-2:
Processor: Intel Core i5 2300

Mainboard: BIOSTAR TH67+

Graphic Card: None

Memory: Kingston DDR3-1333MHz 4GB + 4GB = 8GB

Power Supply Unit: Vios 500W ATX-500W

On Award BIOS images, this usually means the CPU fan or a GPU fan is not working / not connected properly.

CPU fan works fine. I've got no add-on GPU.

I've also tried plugging in and out many times while I troubleshoot. So I don't think the connection is bad.

Someone have this issue and works after RMA the motherboard. I'm guessing probably it's the mobo issue too. Tested everything else.

Initially didn't suspect it's the mobo issue because read somewhere that mobo should be fine if it beeps. Lol.
