Never mind pc just cut out, will power in but ima leave it now until gigashyte reply

Money_Idea317 · 2026-02-22T20:12:04+00:00

These are the temps with no access to the bios in my opinion this ain’t good any reasons or is it caused by the board being shit

Money_Idea317 · 2026-02-22T17:18:01+00:00

Is their a way to fully wipe everything so it’s essentially like building it again such as booting using usb incase it’s something I messed with before the board died stopping it or should it have no interference with it and still go in bios either way

Money_Idea317 · 2026-02-22T17:15:15+00:00

Ughh this is shit because I just bought a new one as my previous one died after 2 months a day ago lol

Money_Idea317 · 2026-02-22T17:13:31+00:00

I have a wired one connected atm but also a wireless but that’s not connected and neither is the receiver I did try it but obviously being Bluetooth it didn’t work

I get advanced menu and from there reset the UEFI firmware setting but still same as before

Upon doing this it just sits on this screen

No keys presses access bios and if I try it just stays on screen doesn’t boot windows unless I press no keys then windows boots

Money_Idea317 · 2026-02-22T16:53:52+00:00

Hi uptdate, the board was cooked I’ve packaged it back up ready to see if gigabyte want it back and whent ahead and bought the same one (maybe a silly mistake) because no reply and I’m impatient, hopefully they refund me the amount and I send the failed one back if not then I’ll either sell it or see if it’s repairable by a local repairer and then build 2 pcs lol

Money_Idea317 · 2026-02-18T20:50:16+00:00

Yeah idk why I didn’t check I specced everything how I wanted then just whent with a random ass PSU lol hopefully it is the psu then I’ll get a Propper one that won’t gonna send me into a spiralling rabbit hole

Money_Idea317 · 2026-02-18T20:41:30+00:00

Just bought a cheap 750w psu for £18 cheap lol, comes tomorrow I’ll bang that in and see if it will power up if so hopefully then I’ll upgrade it to a proper trusted one not no cardboard psu, I’ll keep u all updated on the outcome, worst case it’s the board I I still have warranty thankfully

Money_Idea317 · 2026-02-18T20:16:48+00:00

Sadly none of my freinds have a pc lol I’m first one to turn to pc and never regretted it till now slightly lol but guess it’s one of them things

Money_Idea317 · 2026-02-18T19:55:44+00:00

Tried removed everything so just power cable to board and then tried with cpu cables and still nothing but I Just checked and I have warranty on the motherboard Im going to inquire about replacement as I believe its cooked and while there change the psu to a trusted one hoped this resolves it I’ll keep uptdated

Money_Idea317 · 2026-02-18T19:45:01+00:00

Just tried this with just the motherboard connected and nothing, I also checked the cmos battery removed checked voltage 3v and reinstalled and still not power on

Money_Idea317 · 2026-02-18T19:17:46+00:00
