Greetings,
I just purchased an MSI 975X Platinum V.2 Mobo , i get everything hooked up an in place. I turn the computer on, everything starts up, however the monitor never turns on, and after about 10 sec. or so the computer shuts off. It then restarts itself and stays on for about 10 sec. this cycle keeps on going until the power is shut off. I've tried isolating what could be causing this, unplugged all peripherals, took out sound card , readjusted video card, made sure processor was placed correctly, played with the ram chips...
Now, the PSU i currently have hooked up to this mobo is a Dynex 400 watt. Now, inside the mobo manual, it says the ATX 12V power connection should be great than 18A. The box for the Dynex PSU says the max for the +12V1 and the +12V2 is 15A. The mobo manual also says to have a 450W PSU or higher. Would this be causing the problem i'm currently experiencing when turning on the computer?
