Problem with booting Asus P5W DH Motherboard.
« on: December 22, 2007, 07:25:59 PM »
Well I finally got to building my new system here at home, set everything up very carefully, but when powering on the system, I'm getting the POST beep error code associated with an issue with the video card. After the beep code, then you hear the fan on the video card power up, but of course the system does not boot.

Everything I've tried, hasn't been able to change a thing. I've tried swapping the card in the second PCIe slot available, adjusting the connectors for the power connection to the video card, taking all unnecessary devices off from the PSU, cleaning the connectors on the video card as well as both PCIe slots, powering up without having the PCIe power connector on....and nothing helps.

Configuration:

Intel C2D E6600.
2x1GB Crucial Ballistix DDR2-800 RAM.
XFX Geforce 7900GS video card.
Omega 600W power supply (note, this PSU does not have a PCIe power connector, I am using a converter, which uses 2 Molex connectors to supply power).

If anyone can suggest anything that can be done, it will be highly appreciated. If more info about the system is required, just ask. I just hope that the board itself doesn't have a problem....

Sounds like the problem is the video card. Sounds like it dedder than a doornail. Can you confirm its status in another machine?

He said that it was working before in another machine.  this is very perplexing, because I'm 100%
sure that it was working when he got it.

Inspected the video card, no physical damage apparent.

Don't have any PCI video cards around, else I would have tried it already.

I hoping to head by one of my friends to borrow their PCIe cards to verify that the board is fine...

Unfortunately, components can look fine and be dead.

Trust me, I know that...

I just wonder that if it's the card, when could it have been damaged?

It was working, then removed from previous owner's system, packed up in original package, remained in package until insertion inside new PC (following proper ESD precautions), and then....nada.
