Ur mobo use how long ? And what model?

 

[samkiller]

B85m g43 roughly 2year

 

[Goodshot]

Msi where got beep one. All error codes shown on screen. A2 C2 etc is the beep codes.

Only attach 1 stick of ram, no gpu, cpu attached, no hdd nor ssd. Remove the mobo battery before turning on the switch. Then put it back and turn on the pc. Read the bottom corner right side of the screen. It will have an error code. Which code is it stuck at.

And fyi you could easily claim the warranty if all troubleshooting steps fails. Go over to corbell and do a replacement. They are located at amk techplace. 6th floors up. Can either take the cargo lift or the side pessenger lift up.

Your board is covered with warranty for 3 years. Not 1 year.

Furthermore i doubt its 2 years old. Cause haswell only came out 2013 july period.

I don't remember I got register online for warranty lol.

About the error code, I can't see any of it even using onboard since it can't even on screen totally black…

Bring along your receipt and the board.

What are the symptoms when you press the power button on?

Black screen with monitor telling you no input display?

Is there anything else do you see moving or not? Fans? Any clicking relay sound? Any other forms of movements.

Psu using a paperclip test may not justify that the psu may be working. There are cases whereby the psu pass the paperclip test but when assemble back it wont turn on also.

If you do have any spare psu you can give it a try to boot up.

Next have you tried removing the cmos battery on the board itself?

Nothing happen when I press the power on switch.

Screen is totally blank nothing show at all.

No hdd, led nor hdd clicking sound is heard or seen. Fan led work if I jump start psu…

Have not try with a new cmos battery, only take out and wait few minutes before put in and I only have 1 psu on hand..

If you ever removed the cmos battery before and it still cannot boot up then it could be that the board may have an issue.

My suggestion is bring down the board together with the receipt to Corbell. Most probably is your board. But lets just say you wanna double confirm that the board is dead, bring in the psu and let Corbell try to boot up with you psu.

HTH

If u wan a long lasting board just buy a basic board ( perfer Asus ) ba , like h61 , h81 those without too many complex thing's

Then just bring to corbell first. There is a warranty sticker sticked on the mobo itself. You can just bring down and they will honour the boards manufacturing date as the warranty period.

Sry to hijack

Can I ask what exactly is PC clinic? Is it a shop where you can basically test PC component if they're still working?
