What I would do is clear CMOS and make sure all my hardware was fitted correctly even the Vga.
Did you wear a antistatic band when you were changing your CPU cooler and fitting the memory? It is a good idea to use one.
Hi HiVizMan,
Thanks for your reply.
Let me elaborate a little. I've been reading the user manual of the motherboard and I read that it would consume about 350 W. My Graphics Card consumes about 200 W so why my pc ever ran is beyond me ;p. (the power supply I had was for 530 W).
I ordered a new power supply and did a complete rebuild of my machine. Also clearing the CMOS.
I restarted the machine and everything booted (writing this on the machine right now). However I rebooted the machine to be sure there was no problem.
And the same thing happened. Again a 0x5B q-code and a refusal to boot. I have no idea what is causing it.
Did I fry the PPI or something? (because you mentioned wearing a static glove, which I did not).
This al started happening when I replaced my CPU fan with a new one.
Thanks for the help so far.
Greetings, Rope.
