Title: computer down
Post by: skypuppy on August 03, 2018, 05:10:27 PM

Problem I'm currently having: the email computer in my harem) has died.  Tried a different power supply, no change.  mobo is MSI 990fxa-gd80 v2..2, WITH fx9370 cpu and 16GgB memory.  Worked fine for 2 years.  Disconnected all hard drives, no change.  Root LED/switch on mobo comes on, but is ineffective.  Liquid cooled with H110i Corsair.  Stumped now.  Will not boot from hard drive, ssd, CDROM, or anything.  Press the mobo boot button, no response.

Last resort is clear CMOS and see if that helps however it sounds like the motherboard is dead when you replaced the power supply with a known good supply of proper wattage.

That CPU is a hot power hungry CPU 220watts TDP. So are you sure the second power supply you used to test is rated high enough wattage to power this system?
