You are an absolute hero! I bought a power supply - didnt work. Watched your video and the first thing you said to do works. Amazing, thanks so much.

[@TRUCKERJOES]

Hi, Glad to have been of help to you. If the problem comes back, it means your board is under-powered and you need to upgrade the PCU to a higher wattage. You can also find more videos about ASUS fixings/upgrades etc on my video list. Thanks for watching. Regards, Jose.

[@evilmagic43]

Thank you so much! My motherboard refused to boot, so I panicked. I am very glad I found your video.

[@TRUCKERJOES]

Hi, Thanks for watching, glad to have been of help. You can also watch more videos about the upgrades I have done using ASUS P8Z77 M PRO since then on my KZbin channel. Regards, Jose.

[@voocoo7]

Thank you so much i was able to get my computer running because of this video!!

[@estevaoeov]

Hi, Thank you very very much. You're the only solutions for a long period trying and boring about this issue. I even took my computer to assitence... they sent it back without solve the issue. I just follow your steps and "voilá". Thank you again.

[@Kyle-br6rk]

Just wanna let you know how much of a legend you are

I bought a second hand P8Z77-PRO on eBay and had the same problem using a i7-3770 processor. I found out that using a Corsair VX550W PSU was the way to solve the problem. I did some measurements and noticed that with varous PSU's the voltage on ATX pin 16 (PS_ON#) was around 4.7V when off, and with the good working Corsair VX550W the voltage was around 3.7V. I soldered a 100KOhm resistor between pin 16 and ground (pin 15) and the problem was solved with the other PSU's as well!

[@momfiethehunter504]

Mmm i think you are on to something here. My mobo is also dead and it reads 4.83v on that line, I have to see if I can find a resistor for that thing and see if it boots

[@momfiethehunter504]

I don't have a resistor like that laying around but I do have a resistor that has a brown black black orange gold band config

[@momfiethehunter504]

I'm not good at component stuff so don't judge me

[@TheRapidBiker]

Hi i have a Brand New Asus P8z77-V PRO and this is happening to me, but this isnt fixing it! When i use the jumper the PSU flicks on for like half a second then off again! What can i do?

[@MrMasterDisguised]

How many times has this happened to you since you bought the board ?

[@TRUCKERJOES]

Hi, This only happens if you do updates of sound cards graphic cards etc after the first boot. To prevent this from happening with ASUS P8Z77 M PRO, remove the Bios battery before removing any components from the motherboard and replacing the upgrades... remember to use anti-static gloves and bracelet. Regards Jose Nunes P.S. sorry for the late update

[@locent20]

Hi I did everything there,but still can't get to bio setup,just the all the fans spinning when I hit start button,then shut down.And it keep repeating. Pls help.

[@dabz4506]

Hi. This will really happen in ASUS P8Z77 M PRO ?

[@AImagetools]

I HAVE THIS PROBLEM WITH the p8z77-m when i run games the board cant cope with the power and goes dead, I have a AX750 corsair PCU and one HD7850 so i guess it should be enougth. What u think?

[@TRUCKERJOES]

Hi Andre, if the motherboard turns off while you're playing the games, check for loose connections and make sure the system is not overheating, make sure the cooling system is not obstructed by dust. If everything checks out ok, then your problem is with the PSU itself here you can see when I first built mine I used my 750w PSU, it burned out in a few days kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3jZf4psr990oac so I upgraded to XFX PRO1250w and since then the problem is a thing of the past and I'm running the EVGA GTX660 actually I need to get the videos up of these upgrades. Regards, Jose.

[@AImagetools]

Thanks fot the answer, Well , this PSU AX750 is really supposed to cope with it, I have maxed out the power on the bios for extreme and maxed all powers options up, keeped the cpu normal default clock and it just run some game ok now, i guess it could have helped, but im afraid of it dying again.

[@Soda_F1]

Hi,i bought this motherboard i didnt tested yet ...my processor arrives in a week but i read a lots of bad reviews about it, can be saved with your method? mi board rev is 1.01

[@TRUCKERJOES]

Hi, Sorry, just spotted your comment. Have you sorted yourself out already or not? Regards, Jose.

[@tendervlad]

I just installed this board. It's seems OK for now. I hope I will not face this problem, I used last BIOS from asus support site.

[@shags1253]

I have this motherboard and I got a r9 290 and when I put this in I have to keep turning on and off my computer to make it start up and some times it says VGA card not supported I tried a old graphics card a Gtx 660 and works with no problem do you know why this is happening to me?

[@TRUCKERJOES]

Hi, It's because your V GA card is not compatible. Sorry, for the lateness of the reply, just seen this now. Regards, Jose.

[@Xorrak]

So I have a problem with booting, but it's not quite the same. It can start to the Asus screen, but after that it just flickers gray and restarts over and over. I read a little about it on forums and they're suggesting I should try to use single ram sticks in every DIMM, same results. I changed harddrive still same results. I removed the GPU and went on the boards internal gpu, still same results. Should I change CMOS or try updating bios? What do you think? Also something to add, I've been able to boot it normally before this, it just stopped working one day.

[@TRUCKERJOES]

Xorrak Hi, how many beeps do you get when pressing the power button?

[@Xorrak]

***** Hey, thanks for responding. I started pc now and I don't hear any beep. It just keep restarting over and over to the Asus screen with a slight gray flicker after Asus screen happens. I have the case open and all I can see is a red led that flashes each time it restarts "dram" I have pressed that memok button and it says the memory are okay. Going into bios is not a problem at all. Just getting to windows.

[@TRUCKERJOES]

Xorrak Hi, This is most likely an external problem. Bear in mind, the beeps you're talking about, should be quite faded, and they come from your board, and not from your speakers. The best course of action is to unplug every USB device except your keyboard and the mouse,. Next, turn off the machine, unplug it from the main power source, and press the power button a couple of times for a few seconds, so the system gets into static discharge. Then, plug in the power cord, and power up your machine. Once you get to the windows, then plug in your external devices, one by one, making sure it downloads and updates to the latest drivers. Regards, Jose.

[@Xorrak]

Hi again. I tried as you instructed. I only had mouse and keyboard for USB but I tried to pull out both and one by one, while turning of the computer, pulling out cable and then hit power button on the computer a couple seconds but still same results. I put my ear so close that it almost got into the fan, still couldn't hear any beeping sound, just fans.

[@Xorrak]

***** Hi, sorry to bother you again, I just wanted to say I found the issue. My graphics card had broken, I replaced it and it worked like normal again.

[@shivamgaur19]

hey guys I brought this motherboard and i using it from last 10 days now I m facing the same problem.The boot problem, my pc is unable to start what is it a hardware problem or motherboard? Can u help me please?

[@elcangry855]

yea if dose a3 or 67 is the same problem i won read u window boot drive so it well do and error and i did this and work i dont know for how long but i think i neeed new motherboard

[@TRUCKERJOES]

Hi, Unplug your computer from the wall, press the power button a few times to reduce the static discharge, use latex gloves or an anti-static brace and check for any loose connections. Replace your bios battery and restart your computer. Regards, Jose.

[@kunthanraj]

You saved mine man, thanks a lot 🍾

[@ChrisDembinsky]

Didn't work for me :( My PC will boot to the ASUS bios option screen(press F2 or delete to ....) but will hang after a second or 2. The keyboard lights become unresponsive and then it just sits there.

[@gabriellee1378]

I have a problem.. When I start my pc, the screen didnt show up and the pc keeps turning on and off continuously. Any help? My father cleared all the fans and tried the methods shown in the video, but it still have the same result. Is the power supply fault or mother board?

[@aizazkiani4739]

Gabriel Lee bro its also same prob with me but i can change my hard drive and remove cell from board and remove rams clean then then then start pc after some beeps again install rams and hard drive then my pc goes on

[@srkz]

tried that, tried everything, still doesnt show anything on the display (DVI, VGA, HDMI , all tested nothing)

[@kunee51]

Hi, I really need your help.. I have ASUS P8Z77-M.. same problem and I have follow your guide with the jumper and its power up twice but the first one, its just running but nothing shown on my monitor, just red light on the memOK. I turn it off and try remove the graphic card and one of the ram memory card then powered it up again but still its not booting. I put everything in again and try to power up again but failed.. even did the same thing again on the jumper. I did changes the cr2032 battery but still I cant get it to power it up.. I should have read it earlier about the red light memOK. (push that button about few second till it flashing). I really need your help if you have any other idea how to make it run again.. by the way.. the ram memory are in good condition, its just the mobo itself. Thanks in advance.

[@TRUCKERJOES]

+kunee51 Hi, make sure you use gloves when changing the battery and do not touch on any parts with your bare hands after you put the system under load or the battery simply drains off. So, what you should do now is unplug the machine from the main power supply completely, press the power button for a few seconds, while looking at the machine, you will notice any static charge will cause your CPU fan to turn slightly. If nothing happens, it means all energy has been drained from the system. Now, using latex gloves, replace the CMOS battery with a new one. Again, do not attempt to replace the battery with your bare hands, or the battery will simply go dead, when it comes into contact with your fingers and the board. Regards, Jose.

[@TRUCKERJOES]

+kunee51 Regarding the machine starting and you getting nothing on the monitor, you need to make sure that the system is booting from the right hard drive. How many hard drives do you have installed on the system? And if so, is there an operations system already installed? Regards, Jose.

[@kunee51]

+How to Video and Marketing Thanks for your reply.. I will try this by today and will let you know what's happening.. btw only one drive an yes there's an OS running on that hdd. Thank you very much...

[@kunee51]

+kunee51 Hi again.. Im sorry, really forgot to let you know that it was failed to start not even once.. really had a bad time with it. I've checked other component by install it on other pc and it was ok.. its really my asus mobo problem.. just let me know if you have other idea what was happening..

[@TRUCKERJOES]

+kunee51 If you bought it from an authorised retailer, then you can send it back and will be replaced free of charge. Regards, Jose.

[@pferdebandit]

Bro thank you so much man

[@UmairMasoodM]

Thank you so much!!!! It worked!!!

[@sergioZI]

Big thanks to you mate

[@TRUCKERJOES]

Hi, It happened one time but if you find that this keeps happening, your first step is to look for loose connections; step 2 replace the bios battery and then follow the steps on this video. you can also find more videos about ASUS P8Z77 M PRO on my youtube channel. Thanks for watching. Regards Jose Nunes

[@lostpacket]

I fail to see how clearing the CMOS will fix a dead boot issue. It should at least try to physically start up. Jumping the CMOS is only good for clearing the BIOS settings. Poor BIOS settings will not prevent from physically starting to boot (as shown in your video)

[@rafaelrossini3136]

Thank you to help me!

[@towipanda8338]

ITS WORK!!!!

Hi, You have the same problem as the previous viewer, here are the steps: Unplug your computer from the wall, press the power button a few times to reduce the static discharge, use latex gloves or an anti-static brace and check for any loose connections. Replace your bios battery and restart your computer. Regards, Jose.

[@christianbass10]

This is common in asus p8z77 mother board i also have the same board and it went dead.. Got all fans working i know everything is okay I believe it has something to do with the asus mobo...freaking annoying

[@lostpacket]

christian estrada I had the same thing on 2 different P8Z77 boards. Failed to start like a PSU or switch was bad, but it was the board in both instances.
