970 GAMING black screen when boot on cold start, have to clear CMOS everytime

I have 970 GAMING w/ FX8320, it shows black screen when boot on cold start, have to clear CMOS everytime to enter default.
I have updated it to the up to date M11 bios. Once it boot up, it functions OK no matter whether you reboot or reset it. But after turned off a few hours (cooled down), it shows on black screen again on boot, all LED lights up OK, but I can hear the fan like keep rebooting, any idea?
PSU seasonic 430W, GPU HD7750.

In what DIMM slots did you insert your memory?  I just got and at this moment building a new computer with a 970. 
A horrible experience I had with my last build reminded me of it.  My board was am MSI A88XM-E45.  DIMM1 is blue, DIMM2 is black, DIMM3 is blue, & DIMM4 is black.  When using two sticks of RAM, it says to install one on DIMM1 & the other in DIMM3 (Makes sense... After all, it's color colored that way).
Well it would not boot.  I reseated every component and for HOURS tried almost everything.  Finally I decided to place my two sticks of RAM in the first two DIMMS and viola!
I think I will begin this build the same way.

  • T440s with Windows 8.1 (and BitLocker) - 1 ot of 3 times gets black screen when booting

    We have a case on a machine with original "Lenovo Windows 8" installed. Windows updated to 8.1 and the latest patches. System update is up to date.
    Aprox 1 out of 3 times, when booting, after entering the BitLocker PIN, the Windows loading screen is shown in 1-2 seconds, and the the screen goes black. But the machine is moving forward, because the fingerprint lights up and the user is able to log in using that.
    (The machine was even able to print a document that was sent to the printer when the machine was offline.)
    Have tried to disable fingerprint without any success.

    I have the same problem.
    After trying and failing many times, I worked out that disabling my nvidia card was the only successful solution.
    This will then allow the intel graphics chip to work on its own.
    Something is wrong with the communication with the USB Dock and the nvidia card! I am hoping a workaround that allows me to keep the nvidia card switched on will be found by someone...

  • 30 secondes black screen when booting in P67A-GD65 ?

    Hello.
    When i turn on my computer that has a P67A-GD65 with a 2600k it cpu and the 1.J bios,
    i immediatly have a black screen with a cursor blinking in the upper left and in the bottom right, i have codes like B4 then another one 9something and then 92
    this last for more than 30 secondes and then the pc boots ok.
    Do you know what is the problem and how to fix it ?
    Thank you

    Kind of hard to troubleshoot when all we know is the mainboard, CPU, and UEFI/BIOS is in the system. Could be a USB device or a RAM problem. Was this a working system at any time? OS loaded in IDE or AHCI Mode?

  • [solved] Black screen when booting installation

    The basic problem. I have a HD6870, my monitor is connected through DVI (& my second one through HDMI). No integrated graphics.
    After I try to boot the x64_86 version, the screen goes black after 'booting kernel'.
    Things I've tried:
    radeon.modeset=0 (gives drm:radeon_init [radeon]] *ERROR* no UMS suppot in radeon module)
    radeon.modeset=1 (black screen)
    nomodeset (drm:radeon_init [radeon]] *ERROR* no UMS suppot in radeon module)
    disconnected second screen (black screen)
    video=SVIDEO-1:d (black screen)
    i915.modeset=0 (I have no intel, but black screen)
    acpi=off (doesn't work either).
    It is driving me crazy. Can someone help me?
    EDIT:
    Solved by upgrading BIOS

    Should this be on or off?
    Edit: Only thing remotely close I could find was legacy USB settings, but those just disable my keyboard in the arch install.

    1 videocard
    Lone_Wolf wrote:Another possibility :
    Maybe linux does send output to a wrong monitor. Could you try booting with only 1 monitor connected ?
    I initially thought the same, tried with DVI, HDMI single and double monitor, but it didn't work.
    Lone_Wolf wrote:if still black screen with 1 monitor , try a different connection (your card has 4 it seems : hdmi, display port, dvi-d & dvi-i ).
    See above.
    EDIT 2: putting HD in AHCI mode makes just the screen black. Backlight stays on. In Knoppix and Ubuntu it makes the kernel hang at booting kernel _

  • Black Screen When Booting to Windows

    I have a macbook pro, mid 2009, running snow leopard 10.6.8. The problem I'm currently having is with my Bootcamp Windows 7 partition. Whenever I boot to windows, I get a black screen. I can hear the computer running, but cannot turn up the brightness to see. The keyboard lights come up after a while, and the caps lock key light can be turned on and off, but everything else is blackness, no cursor, nothing. The windows startup sound doesn't happen either. I have a trial version of Parallels 8, and I tried using my Windows 7 install disk to do repairs, as well as my Snow Leopard Install disk, but neither seem to be able to find a problem. I'm stumped and very frustrated at this point, because I can see that all my files are there, but I'm unable to reach them Any help would be forever appreciated.

    By any chance is it like this: http://tinypic.com/player.php?v=vobrz6&s=6 (posted in my topic from a few months back - http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2244344&tstart=0 )
    Basically, Windows 7 will crash / shut itself down immediately after logging in. I've tried everything from disabling and re-enabling start-up items using msconfig.exe; using the default VGA video drivers; and can't figure out what's wrong.

  • E531 black screen when booting (90% of attempts to boot)

    Hi All,
    My laptop is 15 months old and has worked flawlessly until last week (this behavior started all of sudden).
    In 90% of the times I try to boot my E531 it just shows a black screen, even not possible to enter BIOS.
    Then I have to press and hold down the power switch and then retry to boot.
    After a couple of retries the laptop boots as normal and functions flawlessly.
    I already removed the battery, pressed power button for 60 seconds and then reboot,sometimes it works and others it doesn't.
    Hardware diagnostics did not find any issues.I tried to update the BIOS (v1.22 to v1.29) using windows tool and bootable CD-rom but without success (Update using tool does not work it give me error "failed to read BIOS", CD update gives an error that the necessary files are not on the CD).
    anyone have an idea what's wrong ?

    Hi, do you have NVIDIA dedicated graphics? If so, the graphics could be failing.
    Otherwise I'd be looking at a motherboard fault.
    But try this, sometimes if a laptop cannot communicate with the HDD it will black screen - Remove the HDD and see if the black-screen issue still occurs (Obviously wont boot to OS without HDD but we are diagnosing at the moment.)

  • R9 290 gaming - black screen when trying to update driver

    Hello, I recently built a haswell pc and when I received my msi r9 290 card, when I uninstalled the driver that came on the cd using the offiicial uninstaller, and then I cleaned the remains with driver fusion, my pc posted but the screen was black. I could not see the login screen for windows. I got round it by booting in safe mode which allowed me to go to the desktop and install using device manager, rebooting and then fully installing latest driver. This has not happened to any other gpu I have owned. Is this because it's a new card?

    its windows/drivers mess can occur especially when changing to different cards

  • Black screen when booting to Windows 7

    I am running a macbook pro and have just installed windows 7 using bootcamp. Everything works fine when I boot into Windows 7, but it takes 6-8 tries to get in. The screen will just go to black and I am forced to power down and reboot. Does anyone else encounter the same problem?

    Specifically, the posts by Dunsany and valkyr did the trick.  I booted in safe mode, uninstalled and deleted the Nvidia driver, disabled automatic driver installation, and restarted normally.  I then manually downloaded and installed the previous Nvidia driver for my graphics card (which at the time of this writing was 335.23, rather than the latest which was 337.88), and everything is now bueno!
    Two hiccoughs along the way: First, when I tried to uninstall the Nvidia driver the first time, when I restarted I got the login screen (which was a good sign), but it quickly went black again.  I powered down, restarted in safe mode again, and repeated the uninstallation process, and it worked the second time.  Second, when I started the manual install of the 335.23 driver, the computer played a sound similar to the one for disconnecting a USB device, and the screen went black.  I'd seen a lot about trying to increase the brightness (though it hadn't worked up to this point; but if you haven't tried it yet, might as well); I tried it, and it worked! So far I'm back up and running. [/fingers crossed]
    Hope this helps someone else!

  • Mac Pro intermediate black screen at boot after installing mountain lion

    I have a 2008 Mac Pro tower, but since installing Mountain Lion I now get a random black screen at boot. Unplugging the apple cinema 20' power supply for 15 minutes seems to clear the fault. Have had no such problems with other OS until Mountain Lion, seems OK when booting to Snow Lepoard on my other drive?
    Anyone have the same fault?

    Thanks for trying the help! I tried every version of start up, but with no screen it was no good..
    Finally solved the problem, it was the ATI HD 2600 XT graphics card that was dying a very slow death.
    Replaced it this morning with a GT120 Nvidia.
    Anyone with this card should Google it, as apple did a big recall on these..

  • Black screen when monitor connected to one graphics card port only

    A couple of days ago did a back up using SuperDuper. The program is set to send the mac to sleep and when I tried to wake it got a black screen though the system seemed to have woken judging by the sounds. I've had issues after back up with the system freezing so tried rebooting as the first option, unplugging and reconnecting everything but still a black screen. Tried a second monitor and this worked but on reboot it too turned black. I then tried the second graphics card port and this time the screen worked and rebooted fine too. Since then I've tried the original connector/port and sometimes it works sometimes not and mostly even when it does work when I connect at first a reboot results in a black screen. The obvious logic is that this port has gone (ATI Radeon HD 2600) Apple say I have to return the whole kit to base for them to evaluate. I can't afford to be without the Mac for a week or however long it will take so I will just buy a new video card and install myself but just wanted any thoughts on the issue first - could it be anything other than the graphics card? Other hardware/software issues? Can't think why but don't want to shell out if that's not the problem.
    Also, will the NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 work with my 2008 Mac Pro?
    Many thanks

    The 2600 does seem pretty rubbish - never had a Graphics card go on me before - and especially not in less than a year. Of course Apple said I had to return the whole machine to base rather than ship out a new card. It was less disruptive to shell out for a new card than lose the machine for a week or two under warranty. The GT 120 seems fine to me but if you need extra graphics support for 3D, gaming etc then I guess the 4870 is the more powerful option.
    Just to confirm it is the graphics card have you tried reseating it in another slot?. Also I found that for a while at least swapping to the second monitor port worked until that bit the dust after a week.
