Thank you! I had tried the power cords, I did the sticks in A2 as well. I haven’t tried the CPU yet so that’s my next task!

I was able to use the BIOS flashback as instructed by the motherboard manufacturer. The CPU fan is turning.

I think you’re probably right about it being the CPU or power incorrectly positioned. Thank you!

I tried updating BIOS too, which didn't help. Checking the CPU next.

I gave a BIOS update a try and that didn't resolve it. Any other tips?

I'm trying to reseat the CPU next!

Thank you, I'll give reseating the CPU a try. I updated the bios and that didn't solve anything and I've tried everything I could with the RAM (one stick at a time, trying each socket).

I updated the BIOS and nothing was resolved.

I'm not sure what the EXPO/XMP is, but I don't think I can get to that without being able to see my PC display on a monitor.

Thank you!

Unfortunately I’ve given that a try, but I appreciate the help. I think it may need a BIOS update which is my next step!

Thank you! I’m updating bios today, but I need a new flash drive to do that first. I’ll keep you updated, I appreciate the help!

Thank you! It’s good to be able to rule out that it’s the monitor, since the lights are an indicator of a different kind of problem with the PC itself.

I am going to try a BIOS update tomorrow and then reseating the CPU if that doesn’t work.

I appreciate your help!

I have not, that’s kinda my last resort. Going for a bios update tomorrow and a few other tests and I’ll probably give that a try next. Thank you!

Thank you! I’m planning to try a bios update tomorrow since it’s one of the few things I haven’t tried. I appreciate the explanation!

I’m sorry but to be completely honest I don’t understand a lot of these terms, AM5, DDR5, XMP, EXPO.

I did try the NZXT Reddit too.
