Heeeeelp! No display but no POST errors...

[EliteOp]

My opinion is that the MB is faulty:

Motherboard: Z370M-GAMING-PRO-AC
PSU and Cooling: Antec 1000W Modular PSU and only the Corsair AIO connected
CPU: i7 9700K CPU
RAM: Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO 16GB (2 x 8GB) 3200MHz DDR4 Memory

Problem: PC comes on, no POST error on LED Debug Lights or beeps, no display on the outputs.

I triedall the onboard ports (HDMI, Display port) - no display
Tried the above without any unnessesary drives/cards etc.
I then installed a graphics card as well and tried it on both PCI ports and no display.


Any thoughts/opinions?

Check your ram...

Ram works in another PC

 

[BLaaR]

New build or PC that stopped working ?

 

[Greekking]

Is ram on compatability list of motherboard ?

I had a similar issue at work and it was one of the ram sticks (ooooold build) pre-post is usually ram

If you find out let us know

Thinking he may need a BIOS update for the CPU ?

 

[Dopplegarp]

I assume you have tried the monitor on another setup or a different monitor on your current setup? Just to rule out monitor problems.

Sounds like its your display port cable or hdmi cable

Had the exact same issue couple months ago

Possibly however should it not get stuck on the CPU LED Debug indicator?

100% I've tried this on two other working monitors

Nope, tired multiple cables/ports. HDMI, Display port (onboard) and even with GPU,
cables work with other build/screens

It won't boot if bios isn't updated. As 9 series came out on z390 boards but z370 was for 8 series. Id update the bios first then at least you know that's not the issue if it still doesn't boot.

This ^^. If the BIOS is not being executed then it cannot post any BIOS POST codes...

It is difficult to say anything for certain, the MSI site does not seem to have any downloads (BIOS updates or manuals) and only lists 8th gen under the CPU support list (though the main page claims 9th gen).

Their site seems to be bit iffy. Finally loaded the BIOS updates.

- Support the latest 9th generation CPU

List still blank here... Maybe you could link directly to the latest BIOS download?

@EliteOp

Did you get your 9th gen CPU and Z370 board from Evetech? Either an upgrade package or?

If so - you will be person number 3 / 4 that Evetech have done this to.

If the above applies to you its your BIOS you need to update....

If you dont have a 8th gen CPU you can borrow - you need to contact Evetech - make a noise - and they usually dispatch a pre-updated board.

Their International site is kak............at least the DE I could get it to load :

Evetech is once again the root of frustrations.
