First of all hello. I am sorry if im posting in the wrong section, I just couldnt a section that reffers to my problem.
My problem is this, just changed motherboard and CPU to new ones, set it all up and was ready to go.
Currently I am stuck in a cycle from the Loading start screen of Asrock, to the black screen "no vga connection" and a restart, I tried it all with the unplugging restarting PC and nothing worked out.
What could cause this and how am I supposed to deal with it?
Since this is a hardware question, I moved it to the hardware forum.
Start by posting ALL of your exact specs; ie exact motherboard, exact processor, exact pw supply, etc, etc. Do not post "500W pw supply" Post the exact brand and model# Do that for ALL of your parts.
motherboard: ASRock Fatal1ty gaming k4 AB 350
CPU : AMD ryzen 5 1600x
Suppy:Fortron Epsilon 600, 600w
GPU is the radern RX 570 DDR5 red devil edition and an 8gigs of ram DDR4
OK, it appears your parts are compatible. There is a guide at the top of the hardware forum for problem builds. If you follow ALL of the steps, you will find the cause of your issue.
Common problems for inexperienced builders;
1 The 8/12pin aux/cpu pw connectors are not plugged in
2 Motherboard shorting to the case due to incorrect placement of standoffs
3 The monitor is plugged into the motherboard port when a real video card is installed. Be sure you connect the monitor to the video card and not the motherboard port
4 Something is not fully seated ie ram, atx and aux pw connectors, video card, etc
5 Parts not compatible. Does not seem to be an issue in this case
BTW you are not attempting to reuse a dell, hp, whatever big box case are you?
I am wondering, why are you building a system with 4yr old parts? Are these parts used? If so, did you see them work?
yes, the parts were working up to date, just when I got them. I have no idea what's the issue, perhaps reinstalling windows, no clue on what to do. It is trying to automatically repair but it cant. It just restarts over and over. I do have the BIOS menu and all but there's nothing vga or gpu connected there, so..
If you can enter the bios, check the following; cpu temp, 12V, 5V, and 3.3V rails. Post the info here.
Next automatic repair is [IMO] next to useless. Do a clean install of windows booting from an install usb. Use the microsoft media creation tool to make the usb. Download Windows 10 (microsoft.com)
Note the F11 key during POST will bring up the asrock quick boot menu.
CPU temp 67 degrees, thats too high for doing absolutely nothing isnt it?
M/B temperature 26degrees
CPU FAN 1 SPEED 769RPM
chassis fa 1 speed n/a
chassis fan 2 speed n/a
chasis fan 3 speed n/a
cpu vcore voltage +1.376V
+12.00V
+5.00V
+3.30V

I think that temperature is too high for an idle system. But in BIOS setup, it wouldn't be unusual for the CPU temperature to be up some, but not that warm. Since the fans show n/a, I would make sure the CPU fan is connected to the CPU cooler header on the motherboard. You might also need to adjust the BIOS so that the CPU header connector is sensing the CPU temperature. Some motherboards allow the various fan headers to be assigned to different temperature sensors,
It is warm however note the vcore. It is running at full rated voltage AND your cpu fan is only running @769RPM. In the bios make sure the cpu fan setting is to performance and not silent.
You need to do a clean install as outlined in post #7. Attempting to use an existing windows install when you swapped the motherboard very often fails. There is a procedure for doing just this task [swapping motherboards without a clean install] as a sticky at the top of the forum however this procedure starts with the old board still installed.
Those are ok. The 12V is a little high however there is not much load when running in the bios. The 12V will probably drop when you get the system actually running.
You did clean the cpu and cooler AND apply new thermal compound correct? I am assuming these are used parts from your post. If you used a new cooler with a thermal pad, then you would not clean the cooler. The processor however needs to be clean prior to installing the cooler.
Then that should be fine. Clean install windows and make sure ALL partitions on the intended system drive are deleted.
I would install at least one chassis fan as an exhaust fan OR leave your side cover OFF until you can get a chassis fan.
BTW when you install windows, it is best to go to the support site for your motherboard. Download the drivers you are going to need ie chipset, sound, lan, etc. Place these on a flash drive, usb external, whatever. In addition, download and save whatever utilities you would normally use ie irfanview, ccleaner, voodooshield, etc. When you have all of the drivers you need along with your utilities, it makes any install go much easier.
When you are installing windows, have ONLY the drive on which you intend installing connected. If you have any other drives, pull the pw connectors OFF until you finish the install; then reconnect them [system OFF] Install in the following order;
1 Install windows
2 Install chipset/motherboard drivers
3 Install sound, lan drivers as necessary
4 Install video driver. Note you download this from the AMD site and not the motherboard support site
5 Install whatever programs you normally use
Done.
I think it's all good now, about to install drivers and I did go on the motherboard website to dw drivers from there. Hopefully no more setbacks! I'd like to thank you guys for the quick replies and actual asssistance! first time being on a forum and not being completely ignored, thank you!
You are welcome.
I am assuming you clean installed windows?
