Hi all
Hope someone can help me out, cause I'm really lost here, and I consider myself a seasoned when it comes to computer assembly.
I just got my last parts for my new computer yesterday, and plugged in the processor (socket 775) and RAM (GEiL PC2-4300) and tried to boot up, but nothing happened = no image on the screen or anything.
All I got to go after is the D-Bracket which MSI deleivers with my MSI 915P/G Neo2 Platinum, and normally is a nifty feature.
I havent been able to find out what that error code the Bracket is showing means, because there isent a guide with the mobo that shows the possible combinations!
What I is this: http://www.msicomputer.com/support/sup_tshoot.asp
The problem with that is that it is in black and white, and dosent show what color is which.
My Bracket can show 3 colors, green, red, orange (those are the ones I've seen till now).
When I turn on my computer it shows green about 1/10th of a second, and then it changes to the following:
Red Orange (top row)
Red Red (bottom row)
From that troubleshooting guide I linked to earlier, it could be either Memory Detection Test or Initializing Floppy Drive Controller errors, but changing the RAM did nothing, and attaching a floppy drive dident do anything either.
I even took out the processor again, and still got the same error!
I wrote MSI yesterday, telling them about my Bracket error code, and asking for a color version of the codes and got one of those autogenerated answers with "make sure you've turned on the power" and all that rubbish + and they send me the same link to the error codes I posted above!
If anyone got any suggestions (except ones involving sledgehammers and ducttape), please share them!
Best regards and happy easter
