Subject: [gentoo-user] Gigabyte wont boot
Date: Fri, 11 Jan 2013 18:48:44 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <loom.20130111T193824-524@post.gmane.org> (raw)

Hello,

First system build with a Gigabyte mobo. I never
got a "motherboard install book" and cannot seem 
to find any docs on installing a new 990FXA-UD3
with a FX8350 and ram installed. Everything is new
and I have built many PCs before....

I  got the new system put together
physically. I'm trying to boot into the bios.
The Blueray burner opens and closes and I put
the newest liveDVD inside but no boot. No signal
to the monitor.

The fans all run, the BR burner opens and closes, but
the motherboard will not boot. I first tried a
known good pci video card (ATI) and now a new fanless 
video card (ASUS Direct CU Silent Radeon HD 7750).
I tried different slots with the video cards.

Is there a listing of jumpers or other install
tips that I can find somewhere for this mobo?
I meticulously connected everything, as this is not
my first RODEO. I've never had a new mobo in the box without the
little install guide book.....bummer .....

ideas?    wikis?    docs?

James
