So i had this freaking problem yesterday. 

 

Maby some one knows what i am dealing with. 

 

So i buyed this G1 sniper B5 socket 1150 LGA motherboard with a I5 processsor. 
build everything in, and it was looking great, it even went on when i pressed the button. 

After i started up, after 20seconds i was just stuck, did not do anything anymore and got some wird blue error screen without any message.  
After removing all its hardware like the SSHD and the blueray drive, it still had the same problems. I changed the DDR3 1600mhz with my own 1333 mhz but this did not help at all. It did accept the memory but the same problem was still there.

I changed the power supply with the i have in my I7 gaming pc, but than the pc did not even wanted to start up. ?? How wird that is heh ? 

 

So, if anyone knows why this motherboards get stuck after 20seconds, please let me know. I realy do not know how to deal with this problem.  

Shud the motherboard be broken, and shud i sent it back just in case to check out if that is realy causing the problems ? 

 

Thanks for ya help.

You only need the processor, the motherboard, RAM, a power supply and a screen (and the heatsink for the processor so it won't overheat) so carefully disconnect everything and take those out of the case, build it somewhere else out of the case, like on the motherboard's box or something (not on the anti static electricity plastic bag the motherboard came in as it's actually conductive on the outside and can damage the motherboard), connect only the essentials to the motherboard and power supply and double check it all, some parts can be tricky. Then connect it to a monitor and try again.

You said it turns off after 20 seconds which sounds like there's something wrong with the BIOS, possibly the voltages / clock speeds, so if it still turns back off (and maybe turns itself on and off over and over) try to let it sit there for a while, like 30 minutes or reset the BIOS (if you don't know how then just Google it) and then try again and see if it boots (into BIOS since no drives are connected).

It does that yes. 

 

It goes on and off and on and off and on and off some times. 

sometime's its just getting stuck after 20 seconds or doenst start up at all. 

 

I have got an dvd with the board, and i can press END to do an bios flash. shud i try that before sending it back ?

If you didn't change anything yourself and that's how you got it then I'd recommend sending it back as it is right now because if you got a defective motherboard then fixing it isn't your responsibility

Most mother boards if not all come with over heating protection. So if your processor fan is not running it will automatically shut down. You may also have the processor fan plugged into the wrong spot on your mother board. If is is not the mother board will assume it is not plugged in and with shut down to protect itself. Get out your book on the mother board to see if the processor fan is plugged into the right spot...

I hope that helps...

When i start it up it takes about 5 to 8 seconds to start up the CPU fan. This is not plugged in wrong because there is only one CPU fan controll slot, all the others are called system fan controller slots. 

 

When i release the battery on the board and replace it, it starts up saying your settings are reset, would u like to enter your bios ? when you press yes, it does go to the bios but, after 5 seconds it gets stuck, and you need to reset the computer before you can do anything with it again. 

 

All this with only the motherbord on the mobo box ( not buld in ) with only 1 memory ddr3 pc1600 in it and the cpu + fan installed. 
 

When i start up without going to the bios it says, no proper boot device, this is correct because there is no hdd or dvd connected, as soon as i do that, the pc wont even start, or starts with an blue screen. 

 

I sented the company an e-mail. 
The factory will sent me a ticket that i can print out for an RMA, because i dont know what to do more. 

Seems that i tried everything i could test and try out before sending it back. 

 

ill let u guys know when there's an update.

If you can reach POST, try booting a live ubuntu disc. You'll get a lot more information during boot.

Yeah. Sounds like an good plan. 

They sold it to me, let them find it out indeed.

 

It is realy a shame, because it is such a nice motherbord and sending it back in RMA take's allways to bloody long. 

I called them yesterday, Hope they respons today so i can swap it over quick.

 

Never used Gigabyte before, Allways had ASUS, But this was such a good looking bord with the case and the lightning that i realy wanted to give it a try. I already feel sorry to my self about this sinds this is the first try and right away it goes wrong.

you need to look at the MB box for bios Version   then  see what CPU is supported  then use that CPU to update MB bios

 

 

you need a USB stik  formatted FAT 16 with self booting ( DOS ) and  current bios ( F8N for MB Rev 1.x  )

 

reason Revision is  that means they used another chipset like  they had a ford motor then switched to a chevy engine  if use wrong bios file!  instance paper weight

We found the problem. 

 

See the problem is this, The motherbord seems to been released earlyer than the i5 4430 processor. 

So what happend is, is that the bios on this motherbord not seems to support this i5 processor. What they did is that they created a new version bios instead. 

 

So lets say: The original version is Bios F5 but to support an I5 4430 processor you need bios version F8. 

So, what i need to do is upgrade the motherbord to bios F8, But that seems not to work with the processor i have because before the motherbord wants to work with the processor u need an older type of 1150 socket processor so that you can make the update, and than after updating it push in the new processor and it shud be fine.

 

The shitty thing is, is that i do not have an older 1150 processor, so i called the factory and i can sent it back in RMA and they will do the update for me and than sent it back to me so i can finely build on and start using the new computer.

 

 

***Special thanks to  KaptCrunch and Smurf|NL for helping me out finding the supported bios and downloads*** 

 

 

i shall contineu this post as soon the bord returns and let u all know how it is going with the new computer and make some picture's when complete done.

Well that was a learning experience. I thought the mobo was bad because I wouldn't think you would even get to bios setup with an unsupported processor and once there, that it should no longer be reading the bios but waiting on your command.

yea. i had the same feelings about that. 

the motherbord shud be broken, OR needs a new bios update, but no it realy was the CPU. 

 

Never had or / seen something like this. Glad it is working now.
