i took everything out, put mobo on paperbox. issue is it turns on for half a second then turns off immediately, reseated mobo cmos battery too.
i cant find a short yet. only thing i didnt take out is cpu. will try reseating it now.


(pc gpu had a problem so packed it in case , then putting another gpu back in caused this.
thinking there might be short...now i took everythign out. still there is short somewhere ? )

In need of help here :(

Benchmark Scores Faster than yours... I'd bet on it. :)
Edit your posts to add... don't double post.

I'd say your mobo is the issue now.. but no real way to tell without testing other parts.

update : i think its a boot loop..... after couple of poking with screwdriver it turns on and stays on... but fans keep spinning up and down. :) yet to hookup a display now to see what happens.


update 2 : again.. same thing. turns off at first go...... not staying on however this time.

@EarthDog ......sorry. nd any advice ?

did......... only cpu and ram is there , it turned on and stayed on once after couple of time poking with screwdriver. but fans were spinning up and down like bootloop. then i turned it off..now back to same prob . on and off immediately, not staying on . is it a short ? bad bios on mobo ? took out cmos battery couple of times as well.

Pull your CPU/Cooler off - wipe the thermal paste and re-apply. Also make sure your CPU cooler isn't over tightened down onto the board.

After overclocking the shit out of an EVGA x58, I started to have boot issues when overclocking way below what it was at before. Does your board have a post code LED?

use the igpu, no dedicated gpu. One stick of ram, Check CPU pins, stock heatsink, nothing hooked up no keyboard, No USB no mouse just a monitor. If it doesn't post or give a no system error then the board or the CPU is bad

Replace the board for best result, if your psu is not from a reputable maker, replace that too.

Probably because its crap Inexpensive
and Because its a Dell its almost a given Certainty its Propriety fittings to a dell case/psu ect
OP if you Buy this board while it will work with your other Components
BEWARE IT MAY BE PROBLEMATICAL GETTING IT TO FIT YOUR CASE
