Hi Everyone, I’m hoping someone can help me out here… for the life of me I cannot get this motherboard to POST! It powers on, LED2 on the mobo flashes red very quickly, then goes to a flashing green. No beeps, no output on VGA out.
Specs:
Mobo: Gigabyte GA-7TESM
CPU: 2x Intel Xeon Processor L5640
RAM: 8x Samsung 4GB 2Rx4 PC3-10600r RAM DDR3-1333MHz ECC Registered (RDIMM) CL9 240-Pin DIMM Dual Rank Memory Module
PSU: EVGA 500B
Case: Rosewill RSV-L4412
I’ve tried the following:
- Removed from case (confirmed standoffs are in correct locations), currently setup on carboard
- Reset CMOS via removing battery for 5 mins (also replaced battery)
- Reset CMOS via jumper
- Reset BIOS via jumper
- Reseated RAM/swapped sticks around
- Confirmed 24 pin and 8pin connectors are seated firmly
- Connected network cable to IPMI port and monitored via wireshark (no arp response), tho LEDs light up and flicker
- Installed PCI-e video card still no video
One thing I find odd, is that when I jump BIOS_RVCR1 and try to power on I get a POST beep… followed by the beep code: Long-short-short… (still no video signal) this seems to indicate a VGA issue, my monitor is native VGA and tested working on another system.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I feel like I’ve reached rock bottom here…
