4 red LEDs on D-Bracket

I have a MSI K6 Delta board with AMD Athlon XP 2500 CPU and MSI Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 graphics.
When i first built the system all i got was fans and lights, no signal to monitor, and the D-Bracket reported 4 red LEDs. I then reset the CMOS jumper and all worked fine for about 8 hours. At that point it just froze (no cursor movement, no keyboard and the num and caps lock lights wouldn't change)
I hard reset the system and it is now doing the original problem of not booting with 4 red LEDs. I have tried resetting the CMOS jumper again, but it makes no difference.
The processor in this system worked fine in the motherboard it used to be in (several hours before moving into this board).
All power lines are connected (20pin and 4 pin) and i have tried removing all unessessary components like HDDs, CDs etc...
I think it is also worth noting that the PSU is a Q-Tec 350W. I am almost sure that this is the problem, do you agree?

I recommend this one.

Its very cheap and very silent.
Don't be put off if you don't have a clear side window, it can be used in any case

Black screen on boot /w four red LEDs on D-Bracket

Whenever I go switch the power off on my PSU and turn it back on, and after pressing the power button on the front of the computer it doesn't post it acts as if I kept pressing the reset button.
The D-braket shows 4 red leds (which means damaged/not installed processor).
But if I hold the power button to turn if off, then I turn it back on it works flawlessly!
Am I doing something wrong? I didn't have this problem before.
Specs are below....
BioHaz

I did a Google search and found this below...
This happens to be my exact same problem, it happens when you turn on the PSU switch then turn on the computer immediately after that. It seems like you just have to wait.
Is this a common problem?
Should I worry about this?

The old black screen on boot up with four red LEDs on the D-Bracket
is a fairly common problem.
So far I've only seen four fixes for the problem.
1. Defective motherboard (Although this is seldom the problem)
2. Power supply is defective, or you forgot to connect the four
wire auxiliary power connecter to the motherboard. The auxiliary power
connecter must be connected for this motherboard to work.
3. Your reset switch is stuck. Disconnect the reset switch from the
motherboard, then try to boot up.
4. This one is weird. It fixed my problem, however, based on the
troubleshooting you've done, I don't hold out hope it will fix yours.
For some strange reason, some MSI motherboards will not boot
if you've just plugged them in. Plug in the computer, make sure
the power strip and the switch on the power supply are all in the
"ON" position, then go grab a beer. After waiting a couple of minutes,
turn on the computer.
I know it sounds weird. But I have the same motherboard and CPU.
If I turn on the power strip and attempt to boot my computer immediately,
I get a black screen and four red LEDs. If I turn on the power strip and
wait a minute or two, the computer boots up every time and works
perfectly.
Hope this helps.

Cpu or mobo broken? (four red leds and CD ticking on 865PE)

Hi folks, hope you can help me out.
My 2.5 year old system died today while using it. It's an 865PE Neo2 with a 2.8GHz P4 and 2x512MB RAM.
It doesn't POST and the D-bracket is showing four (all) red LEDs. What is also interesting is that there is some kind of activity on the CD/DVD drive (is ticking continuosly) and the keyboard Num Lock / Caps Lock / Scroll Lock LEDs blink at irregular intervals (all at the same time).
Does this indicate if it is the CPU or motherboard that is broken?
[I have disconnected all accessories + reseated the two power connectors, the memory sticks and CPU but no improvement.]
Cheers
Mike

I bought the computer "ready-made" by a computer manufacturer so I haven't been involved in the choice of PSU, but I expect the specs to be sufficient as they built lots of systems of this model. The computer is a "low noise" model (PSU labelled "w/noise killer") so this has probably affected their choice.
Anyway, the specs are:
DC out: 350W
3.3V+5V: 220W max
3.3V: 28A
5V: 30A
-5V: 0.3A
5V SB: 2A
12V: 16A
-12V: 0.8A
I thought my measured voltages looked fine, but was there something that caught your attention and indicated problems with the PSU? (Or maybe rather the failure statistics you mentioned earlier?)
Thanks

MSI KT4AV 4 RED LEDs WON'T BOOT

Hi. I recently purchased a new MSI KT4AV motherboard, new AMD Athlon 1.33 Ghz CPU, and new PC2100/DDR266 DIMM RAM, and when I turn it on, all 4 LEDs on the diagnostic bracket light up RED (meaning processor failure). Does anyone know what could cause this?
My system specs:
MSI KT4AV motherboard
AMD Athlon 1.33 Ghz 200 FSB CPU
PC2100/DDR266 DIMM
420W PSU (+3.3/28A, +5/40A, +12/18A)
Hopefully that's enough to diagnose any problems because it won't output any video, just 4 red LEDs on the D-bracket.
Thanks.

Hello,
When I bought my second KT4AV, I was planning on using an Athlon T-Bird 1.4 I had laying around in it. It had the exact same problem as you are having, it just didn't work. I then tried a Palomino 1700+ I had in a another computer that I knew worked fine - it was (and still is) in a K7T266 Pro2-RU - and it didn't work either.
I was thinking the motherboard was bad but I bought an Applebred Duron 1600, and it worked perfectly! So it would seem that even though they are listed as compatible, the older Athlon T-Birds and Palominos simply will not work. My advice to you, buy an Applebred Duron, or better yet, an T-Bred XP 2000+.
Sorry if that wasn't what you wanted to hear!

After falling red led for 3 seconds then dead

Hi,
after falling on the floor my blackberry 8800 will not start anymore..
When I insert battery or charger cable the red led lights up for 3 seconds then turns back off but the device is dead...it the anything I can do?
Iv found other topic's talking about red flashing light and firmware reload, is this the same thing?
Thanks for any help!

Hey mau_mau,
You can try to reload your operating system but most likely all your data will be lost.
You can try to see if the device will connect to the BlackBerry Desktop Manager to back up data, but there is no guarantee it will be able to do so.
You can consult article KB11320 for instructions on how to do the load.
If you need further technical assistance, you can contact your wireless service provider.
Thanks and have a great day!

I gone thru the link in SDN, but no resolution yet.
Re: Business Process Engine is showing Red Led in RWB

Hi Mark, All the nodes are green under "Maintain Runtime Environment" and "Maintain Definition Environment".
In RWB, component monitoring --> Display -- Business process engine is RED with message as
"Schedule background job for clearing report" in Yellow.
I looked under batch jobs "SWWCLEAR" and it is already ran successfully.
Please let me know how can i make BPE green.

WRE54G keeps getting Red LED

I'm having some problems with my Linksys WRE54G connecting to my WPA enabled, Linksys WRT400N. I've setup the WRE54G successfully (able to access to web setup page via 192.168.1.240 and configured it manually, I moved it to the part of house that I wanted to and was able to successfully connect with the Wireless G laptop with good connect rates (ranging between 80-130Mbps). The WRE54G had two good blue solid signals. However, this morning I noticed that it had a Red LED and now I am unable to connect via the web page to check the configuration. I reset the WRT400N and I'm still getting the Red LED. I am using Channel 1 which I've heard shouldn't be used although frankly I didnt see a way on the WRT400N to force to broadcast on a specifc channel if you're using a Mixed Network mode.
Do I need to setup a static IP address on the router for this device (I only have 6 devices connected to the network so I didnt think this would be a problem for a .240 address).
Any help troubleshooting would be appreciated.

Make sure that you have assigned the static gateway on the Range Expander.Try to change the channel on the router and range expander.On the router,change the Radio band for 2.4GHz to Standard,Change the Security to WEP.Now,Power cycle the router and range expander.Now,check.

Mysterious red LED light inside my G4

Could someone tell me what the red light means on the inside of my G4?
It can't be seen from the outside.
I am having a problem with my firewire ports not working. Is this a warning or alert of some kind?
Help! I really looked and can't find this info anywhere!

From the G4 Service Manual:
Logic Board LEDs: Power Mac G4 (AGP Graphics)
There is one red LED on the Power Mac G4 (AGP Graphics) logic
board. It indicates that there is power to the board and does not imply a fault condition. Hardware such as DIMMs and PCI cards should not be installed or removed when the LED is on.
Cheers, Tom

For Red LED's What does it mean

I don't have my manual and every once in a great while when I trun this beast on my puter locks no video no sounds I mean beeps but just for red LED's
My mobo is kt266 pro 2
tbird 1700+
kingston 512 CL 2.5

Here what manual says :
"Processor might be damaged or not installed properly or damage/Discharge Lithium Battery"
The battery, it refers too, is on the motherboard and keeps the adjustments on the Bios when you turn off the computer. Since the motherboard is new I don't think that it could be damaged or discharged. Check your cpu (processor). Ensure that it is properly cooled and that it didn't crack during the cooler installation.
You can download the manual from this site for more information.There are manuals for all models.

4 Red Led Lights - Please help

the other day I left my computer on for a few hours and when I came home and moved the mouse it wouldn't come out of standby. To get it to shut off, I had to hold the power button down. Now when I start it, the fans start spinning, the DVD drive spins for a second and a few times the orange light on the monitor turned green. But after about 10 seconds, it shuts down.
I have the 4 red lights on the LED, so I swapped in a new PS - Enermax 550W with 36A on the 12v. Still same thing. So I'm guessing either the CPU or the board. I built this about 6 months ago. It's not overclocked and it was idle during the time I left it. Any suggestions?

Yes and no. I know that is confussing. However go to this first as you may have had a problem right along and did not know it nor would you without testing. Memtest86 is a great way to test memory. The no part is that it could be something else. But hey you have to start somewhere.
As for the timings in RAM you need to go to Corsairs page and check the exact model on their charts. Also be sure to read any side notes as they may have specific timings for your A64 versus other CPU's. It can be different as the memory controller is on the CPU in our case instead of on the MB.
Corsair also has tech support that can walk you through memory timings if you don't follow them at all.
You can also have some other thing in the system that went bad even as simple as a HDD cable that came loose. To troubleshoot sometimes the easiest way to find out is to unplug anything that is not needed to boot.
But start with the memory as the 4 Red LED's indicate.

Download dictionary within Kindle app causes Notification red LED flashes like crazy

I'm not sure if it's a Kindle issue or BB10 OS issue, but it was kind interesting on my Z10 when it happened.
I've installed the Kindle app from appworld and I downloaded a free book, touch any content would prompt to download a dictionay for it, confirm it and the Notification red LED started to flash like crazy until the download was completed.
Have a great weekend.

It must have been a thriller that you were downloading 'cause you don't get that from heavy drama novels.

Solution Manager 7.1 SOLMAN_SETUP - BPO Dashboard Setup stays on red LED

Hi.
We have another strange behaviour in Solman 7.1 Setup->Basic Configuration->Automatic Activities. Step "BPO Dashboard Setup" was first red LED because "Cube 0SM_BPMRH is not active and will now be activated automatically" and then "System status failed for system" without further information in the log.
Now if we execute the step again, the Job AGS_BPO_DASHBOARD finishs successfully, but nonetheless the LED stay red. Also the log below the Automatic Activities list is not updated and has still the two old messages from above in it. I think we refreshed pretty much all buttons on the website and cleared the browser cache.
And by the way: I can't find the mentioned cube in RSA1, isn't this the place where all the cubes should be listed?
Any ideas?
Cheers, Tobias

Hi,
My ST level is on SP08 and the note above can't be implemented. The BPO Dashboard Setup is still in RED icon.
What should I do to resolve this?

Thank you!

BPE in RWB is showing Red LED.

Hello Experts,
In RWB --> Component Monitoring --> Display -- Business process engine is showing RED LED.The message
"Schedule background job for clearing report" is in Yellow.
In transaction swf_xi_customizing all the nodes are green under "Maintain Runtime Environment" and "Maintain Definition Environment".
I cannot change the "Schedule background job for clearing report". It gives message "Customizing Already Carried Out"
Please help.

Hi Suraj,
Is this hindering the execution of your BPM. I dont think it should create any problems. I have often seen the adapter engine and integration engine showing Red LED but that does not hinder the execution of messages.

Why in my FP-TC-120 Module, the red leds are not lighting

The red indicator leds are not lighting, even if there its no TC conected, what could it happent the software works fine but the leds still turn off

The red LED's indicate Open Thermocouple detection. However, each channel can be configured for either thermocouple (temperature) or voltage measurements. If a channel is configured for one of the voltage ranges (+/-25, +/-50, +/-100, -20 to +80 mV), Open Thermocouple does not apply so the LED's are deactivated. Use the NI-FieldPoint software to make sure that your channels are in one of the temperature modes and not in voltage mode.

Aaron
