I am servicing this customers Mobo, which has come in for modem/front usb port problems. He cant get his usb ports to work, and modem wont dial out. I quickly fixed the modem problem, and noticed that this persons usb jumpers on the board were setto disable, so I enabled them. But they still wouldnt recognize. So, I was fooling with the wiring on the board, that the usb ports hook up to.. when all of the sudden NO POWER!!!
Nothing will come on, I did everything, and it was dead. I have no Idea what happened. I was wearing my esd bracelet the whole time.
So, I order a new MOBO, and get the new one in. I have another tech by my side, as I put in the new MoBo. We go to power it up, and it wont even finish post before it gives alow, low groggy beep, and dies out. The wierd thing is that a split second before it beeps the power fan’s rpm’s go up slightly then it dies. Does anybody have any ideas??
I am going to RMA the Mobo on Monday if I have to. I have switched out the Power Supply, processor, DDR Ram, everything, to no avail. The switches on the board have all been checked… Im lost..
Thank you…
Zeke
