Hi, i've got this weird problem with my MSI P7N Diamond. I bought all my components new and assembled them a week ago.
When i power up the rig it wont post, it just freezes at the MSI logo. Scanning the internet i found many others with the exact same problem.
Turns out the shipped v1.0 BIOS doesn't support my CPU, v1.2 supports it though. Without a supported CPU i cant update BIOS so i sent an RMA request asking them to update the BIOS.
Just got back my motherboard with updated BIOS, only to realize the problem's just got worse.
Now when i power up the rig it doesn't even send any videosignals to the screen.
Not a sound from any HDD or the little buzzer.
The front panel HDD and Power lights wont light up.
The leds that tell me i've connected the GPU cards, DIMMs etc works. The three leds (HDD, POWER, STANDBY) is constantly on.
I've removed the power cord and BIOS battery overnight, tried every possible combination of single/dual GPU and DIMMs in all of the available connectors.
Im now running the rig with just the essentials, without HDDs etc without success.
If anyone out there has the slightest clue what i could try next, dont hesitate to let me know!
