Yes! Dryer is the way to find out about the moisture! :thumbsup:

[ocgmj]

Make sure to use a dryer sheet so it smells nice also..:rofl

[punx223]

try another psu dude.

if its not switching on or nothing is happening at all then it may be the standby voltage...

[Witchdoctor]

Blue light is on and the red eVGA light on the NB is lit but hit power and nothing

lemme know if you need any help.... are you the original owner?

[Dentlord]

Sounds like what happened to my 758 ... not good bro.

[Witchdoctor]

Yea I bought it brand new for Digital Storm

they were the only ones who had one in stock ....

does not look bad ... litle moister on the head .. but that is typical as it condenses the moment you take it off ... looks like a good seat as I have had it on for over a month and a half. Going to hit it with the hair dryer a bit and see what happens ...

Wow bro much apreciated, but not sure if it is the board yet still working on it.

Hopfully it is sumptin simple. But I will let you know and again thansk bro

Figures though, have a case af beer and three cards ready to go and rip off about 150 boints while jammin the tunes and knocking the heads off a few froths .... sucks man


Instead ripping my rig apart :argh::argh::argh:

[Kal-EL]

Been there, done that. I think its the tunes that jinx it. Gotta get going before you launch the tunes.
At any rate, I'd go thru the normal troubleshooting routines before jumping to conclusions.

agreed double check everything first

[Witchdoctor]

no idea .. hope it is just a querk or something ...

maybee it will just boot up and I can salvage the evening ... these things the doc gave me for my ankle have me about half loopy .....

he said it was called Vikodon ..... :clapping:

what ever they are I ain't feelin no pain .... wonder idf I should be workin on this stuff with these things ..............LOL

[Kal-EL]

Normal Troubleshooting being:

1- Check all power cables
2- Check Dimm, GPU, CPU mounts, including Heatsink mounts
3- Check PSU is functioning correctly ( PSU Tester comes in handy)
4- Remove sata cables, peripherals and all but one mem dimm
5- Clear cmos
6- Cycle thru mem dimms, tryin each at least once, clear cmos in between each.
7- Try one dimm in slot closest and then slot furthest from Motherboard, then center slots
8- Remove power from the board, unseat CPU from socket, press power button, clear cmos, replace cpu, single dimm, no gpu, power on.
9- Same as above, but leave no mem sticks in dimms.
10- Same as above, Mem and GPU installed.
11- Still no luck? grab a spare processor from a buddy if available. Last ditch try.
12- Note behaviors and post codes thru-out troubleshooting process.
13- Still not working? Of course not nutterz, this is number 13 in the process and its doesnt mean "Happy Days"

You should have just tried to boot on air which would have saved some time in case she is still dead. ;)

make sure your shaders arent too high.... sometimes the core can go quite a bit higher than shaders
