H61M-E33/W8 won't boot

I just installed a brand new H61M-E33/W8 motherboard, Intel i3 processor, new 600W power supply, and 8 GB of memory. Put everything together just fine and it booted to the system bios with no problems. Shut down and installed my hard drive then re-booted. Again, no problems and the it appeared to be booting just fine. Then the system suddenly shut off and now will not boot at all. When I hit the power button the fan turns for a few seconds and stops. Any ideas?

First try a full cmos clear: >>Clear CMOS Guide<<
IF no help remove non essential hardware and try to boot with a single stick of ram. Test each stick and each DIMM like this.

Install both Memory sticks and it won't boot, doesn't past post.
Install 1 Memory stick, it boots, works great. It doesn't matter which stick is in the slot closest to the Processor, they both work great.
We have replaced the Motherboard and the Memory. We have upgraded the PSU to a 600W. The only time we have problems is when the Memory is in the slot furthest away from Processor.
We tried this with and without the video card in, same problem.

Followed your instructions to a "T". I now have Bios version E7680IMS.V17.6 I shut the computer down, unplugged without the battery for 2 hours. Cleared the CMOS....STILL HAVING SAME ISSUE!!!! It won't boot and sends me into an infinite loop with both memory modules in both slots.
I am so close to sending the Motherboard, Video Card back for full refund!!! and never buy MSI again!!! This seems to be a recurring theme all over the internet regarding MSI, and yet I can't seem to find a solution.

Msi a55m-e33 motherboard won't boot up

Currently bought new parts to install to my rig but they won't boot up??
Motherboard: msi a55m-e33

ram: hyperx 1866mhz 8gb
psu: corsair 430 cx

first suspect is the BIOS on the board! for that CPU it needs at least Version B1 (11.1) for a Richland CPU to be supported...
if you do not know what BIOS version your board has tell us the Serial Number of the board so we can tell you if thats the issue or not? (that is on the UPC label on the box it came in or on a sticker on the rear of the motherboard!)

MB H61M-P23 B3 won`t boot

Hello,
Computer Specs:
-PSU: Chieftec 500W CTB500S
-CPU: I5-2400 @ 3.1Ghz
-MB H61M-P23 B3 (Latest BIOS Update)
-4G Kingmax DDR3 @ 1333Mhz
-Video: Asus GTX460 1GB DDR5
The PC worked fine for 2-3 moths. When the PC usualy started there where 2 beeps followed by another one. Now the pc starts the same but after thoes beeps has another 5 beeps and the computer doesent boot at all. When I remove the GTX460 and go with a 8400GS or onboard video it works. Memtest OK, PSU changed with a 800W Chieftec .
The thing is that sometimes boots with gtx460 but when I restart the PC doesen`t work.
I tested all the components with another MB(MSI G41M-P26) and another CPU (C2D E7200) and all works fine.
I tried setting the RAM to 1066 but its the same thing.

My bad, I thout I updated BIOS but not. After Updateing BIOS to latest version the computer booted fine and entered BIOS, I restarted and I got the same black screen.
Also the beeps changed. 1 short beep, 1 long and 2 short.
Also when it boots and I enter BIOS and when I select Discard Changes and Exit and press yes/ok it doesen`t do nothing only save changes and exit works and the computer restarts.

H61M-E33 won't post with SATA controller installed

I'm having trouble with using a specific PCIe x1 SATA controller with my H61M-E33.
This board has three PCIe slots, and I'm trying to use three PCIe x1 SATA controller cards. Two cards are based upon the SiL 3132 chipset, and work perfectly. The JMicron JMB363 chipset card is the problem.
If I insert the JMB363 card into any slot, the board will refuse to even post. It sits there for a few seconds, then power cycles. It will do this over and over until you pull the switch off the power supply. It will do this if inserted into any slot on the board, and even if no other cards are installed.
This card works perfectly in another machine. It appears there is some kind of conflict between this card's chipset and the motherboard.
I'm running the latest beta firmware that's available (A41), but I had this same problem on the shipping firmware (A20). Is there anything I can do to try to figure out what is going on?

Quote
The JMicron JMB363 chipset card is the problem.
Recommend to contact both MSI Tech Support with a ticket, & it may also be a good idea to contact the card manufacturer & see what they have to say as well. It is rather apparent it is a compatibility conflict of some kind since the other two cards work fine.

Computer Won't Boot Up

Here is my issue, my computer one day was working fine and the next it won't boot properly.
System Specs: Satellite T235D-S1345RD (Laptop) - Windows 7 (64bit) - BIOS 1.7 - 4gb RAM -
I have gotten the computer booted one time. I am unsure why it did that time but did not do it another time.
Since that one time I put the computer in hibernate and when I tried to bring it out it told me it failed when coming out of hibernate so it went to reboot and now won't boot.
Here are the few steps I have done to try and get it working. When it boots up it gives me an error message (says that power failed or for some reason it did not boot)
I have ran "Repair Computer" and it does not do anything. I try start windows normally and it goes no where.
So I then tried F8 and got into the Advanced Boot Menu. First one I tried was Start Windows From Last Known Good Configuration. (or something like that I forget the exact wording)
When it does that the computer will start to boot up go to the "Windows Loading" screen and then it flashes a blue screen (there are words there but it flashes so quickly I cannot read it) and it goes back to the boot screen and acts like it is restarting and continues in that loop.
Next step - Enter F8 again tried "Repair Computer" and it loads to a black screen with a Cursor but nothing ever happens. I have given it over 30 min and nothing happens.
So next step- I enter F8 again and try to boot up in safe mode and again when it loads it flashes a blue screen and then nothing.
EDIT - I found how to show the blue screen. It says UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME. Not sure what else I should do after I get that error message. Message Reads:
It reads UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME and says if it's the first time I've seen the error screen, to restart the computer. Then it tells me if it appears again, to check and make sure any new hardware or software is properly installed.
"If problems continue, disable or remove any newly installed hardware or software. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing. If you need to use Safe Mode to remove or disable components, restart your computer, press F8 to select Advanced Startup Options, and then select Safe Mode."
END EDIT
Next Step: I come to you guys here on this forum. I am a bit perplexed and lost at what to do. I wonder if this is a virus but I cannot get the computer to respond to try to get into it to check.
Ideas? Advice? What should I try? I can get into the F8 menu but not sure what else I should try. I will try anything to get this computer up and running!
Thanks for any and all help.

Hi:
The 24 character failure ID usually indicates HDD is failing/has failed. You need to replace it with a new one.

Manual: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03099531

Contact HP: https://support.hp.com/in-en/contact-hp/product/HP-Pavilion-dv6-6c00-Entertainment-Notebook-PC-serie...
If you're under warranty, HP would send you replacement HDD.
If you're not, buy any branded 2.5" SATA 9.5mm thick internal laptop HDD and replace it yourself. But HDD of at least same capacity HDD as the one that came with your laptop (640gb) so that recovery media would work -
Go through page 56-58 in the Manual for replacement procedure. It's quite simple DIY job.
Something like this:
http://m.newegg.com/Product/index?itemnumber=N82E16822236561
If you've not yet created the Recovery media to restore the factory settings after replacement, you have to order a set of Recovery USB from HP.
For salvaging the data from old HDD, I suggest you take out the drive. Connect it to another PC using SATA to USB adapter - copy all the files you need.

Satellite m300 won't boot! please help!

Hi,
I've got a bit of an issue here.. I have a Satellite m300.. a white one..
and it won't boot... I've had this very issue before but it turned out to be an external USB HDD that stopped it from booting up but now even with everything removed it still won't boot.
And it was fine until yesterday, it just gave up.. I am away from home for work so I have all the work stuff and unfortunately without my recovery cd, but my guess is that it won't even read it..
So this is what happens..
turn on..
all light come on.. including power and all the white lights around the keypad..
and then maybe 5 sedconds later caplock and numlock(?) green lights flash..
then it's a dead still.. no HDD activities or sound.. just dead quite..
the screen remains black blank through out..
it seems to get stuck here before reaching the post screen.
i thought the power button usually took more than just a push to turn off? it instantly swithces off with a single push of the power button..
I think this laptop is like on sleep or something and can't seem to wak up.. maybe?
And it has vista.
Please help.. I have some important work files I need to recover at least before formatting..
and that has to wait till I get home which won't be for a month or so..
which also lets me take it back for warranty as well..
any help appreciated!!!
cheers,
Min

Turn off all power incl. AC .

cmos .
Assemble PSU connectors ,only one DIMM module and graphics card and turn it on and se if you get a post .
Just removed all components. I reset the CMOS. I then reconnected the 20pin and 4pin, 1 stick ram, and the video card (no ide devices, no mouse, keyboard cd drives) and the monitor doesn't show up. I also tried another monitor so it isn't the monitor.
Could it have a bad AGP port?
Any other suggestions? I am thouroughly stumped. Also the power and reset buttons don't work no matter what configuaration I put the front panel connectors in. The Power LED is lit up and it doesn't work and the reset light is off and it doesn't work.
Also noticed one of my fans connected to one of the two other fan pins on the motherboard isn't working.
What a nightmare.

Mid 2010 MacBook Pro won't boot past blue screen

I've been having problems booting up my MacBook. I can't get past the blue screen. It went from booting slow at the grey apple logo screen to not booting up at all. Is it a problem with my hard drive? I also have boot camp running as well, but I can still see the boot camp drive for windows and my OS X drive, as well as my installation disk when I have it inserted when I hold the option key at start up.
I'm still able to run windows on it without any problems when I pick the windows drive. I tried different methods from different forums but I'm just not getting through. I tried holding 'c' to boot up from cd and I let it run over night but it never got past the grey apple screen with the gradient wheel (still spinning). I had already used time machine to back everything up before this happened since I was able to boot up properly (but slowly). Can anyone help? It's driving me nuts, and I can't remember what os/firmware version I'm running.

n your signature you said you are running 10.6.3. So let’s assume you are running Snow Leopard.
It sounds like your diagnosis of disk problems is correct. The OS X partition may be corrupt.
Try booting in Safe Mode.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564
Try again to boot in normal mode.
If it will boot in Safe Mode but not in normal mode then you could have some 3rd-party software preventing the boot or you could have a corrupt disk or OS.
Boot as from the startup manager (Boot - option) and then select the installation disk.
Hopefully that will work better than starting with the Boot-C option.
Then try to repair the system disk.
Start the Disk Utility.
Perform the steps in http://support.apple.com/kb/PH5836.
If it repairs OK but still won’t boot reinstall OS X.

MacBook Pro Retina 15" mid-2012 won't boot in clamshell mode with an external display attached

I have a 15" MBPr mid-2012 running OS X 10.10.1. The system won't boot in clamshell mode (power is connected, lid shut) with an external display attached via an Apple Thunderbolt->DVI adapter. it boots fine if the lid is open. It isn't the adapter or the display since my 15" MBPr mid-2014 boots up just fine connected to the same adapter and monitor. And this system used to boot like this just fine some while ago (probably before it was upgraded to Yosemite). I've reset the NVRAM (twice) to no avail.
Has anyone encounter this? Anyone have a solution? Should I try an SMC reset (always a bit nervous about that)? Might it be a driver issue in Yosemite?
Thanks.

IMac shut down suddenly and won't boot back up

This morning my iMac shut down suddenly. All I had open was Google Chrome and I was just on Facebook and that's it. When I tried to boot it back up, it wouldn't load past the startup sound, wherein it would appear to shut back down,or at the very least the screen would go black (my mouse has lights that stay on when the computer is on, and the light kept going on and off while the screen remained black). This was the case for at least a half hour until it suddenly booted itself back up all on its own. I had it on throughout the day, just browsing the internet and watching Youtube. It shut itself down twice during the day, and both times it restarted on its own right away after showing me a grey screen with the Apple logo and a progress bar. Now it just shut itself down again and it won't make it past the progress bar screen - if it even makes it that far, sometimes it shuts off right after it makes the startup sound. It keeps trying to boot up on its own over and over again, but it keeps shutting down right away. All the fixes I've searched for so far require a computer that actually boots up all the way so I don't think I could run any reports if I tried!
I'm running the latest version of Yosemite (10.10.2?).
Model number A1311
Not entirely sure what specs are useful to know so I'm just gonna write some of what's on the box it came in:
3.2 GHz Intel i3 processor, 4MBshared level 3 cache
4GB of 1333MHz DDR SDRAM
1TB serial ATA hard drive
ATI Radeon HD 5670 graphics processor with 512 MB of GDDR3 memory
Bought it around fall of 2010. Not sure if it's worth trying to get it fixed (I live nowhere near an Apple store) or if I should just get a new computer, but I would like to know what's wrong, if possible.

Try to boot into the Recover Partition by holding down the Command + R keys on startup. If it still won't boot then the HD has probably crashed. The is likely a AASP in your area, you can locate one by clicking AASP Locator, take it to one to be professional diagnosed. If it's only the HD, assuming you have been backing up, restoring to a new HD is pretty simple.

[865PE NEO2 PFISR] Won't boot with added memory

Recently I upgraded a few items on my PC which has been running fine for 18 months or so. I changed out the video card and bought double the memory of the same brand and type it had in it. I went from 1gig (2 sticks) and added two more sticks. But now it won't boot. The power is on but no output whatsoever.
I RMA'd the memory thinking that might be the problem but it's the same with the new set. I tried all sorts of memory/slot combos. Basically, the new memory works fine if you swap it out in bank A with the old stuff. That's how it's running right now, so I know all of the sticks are good. I can take a third and put it in either slot bank B and it'll boot, but obviously not run properly. But any combination of these four sticks and the system won't boot!
Please help!
I'm running this system:
Win XP (SP1 I believe)
865PE NEO2 PFISR
P4/3.0CGHz, 800M 478P/512K HT
DDR Corsair 512MB X4 (400)
Dual 80gb samsung HDs running SATA
Sapphire X800GTO 256M video card
Antec Sonata case
TruePower 380Watt ATX12V

What brand, model, and speed are the RAM sticks. Did you check your Test Report booklet which came with the mobo. If you can't find it, you can go to the MSI website and look for your MOBO and get the test report that way. Some brands/models will that have been tested are shown in the report to be okay in all 4 slots, some only test okay in 2 or 3. Check this report and if it is one of the brands/model/speed tested you will see how it fared. It may well be you the MOBO doesn't like your RAM in 3 or 4 slots.
Maybe I missed it, but did you try each slot with only one stick at a time? You may also have a bad RAM slot.

Lenovo G560 - Issue with won't boot and black screen after HDD upgrade

Lenovo G560 - Issue with won't boot and black screen after HDD upgrade.
What happen: My laptop was working fine, no blue screen issue, no funny business at all. I bought a new SSD Intel 120 GB and thought it would be a good idea to replace the HDD. I shutdown and disconnected the power adapter, waited a couple of minutes and removed the battery. I opened up the back case and replaced the HDD. And put all the screws back and put the battery back in.
Problem: The very first time I turned the power on, nothing happens besides a black screen. I pressed the dvd drive it works and opens up and closes. I waited for about 30 mins and still has blac screen. When I mean black screen, no bios menu, no logo, just a black screen with the fan sound on.
I have tried these:
1. Unplugged everything - battery, adapter, and pressed the power on button for about 60 seconds, nothing, the laptop turns on with the LED display on for both on and battery LED's. But nothing but black screen, no sound of windows loading just the fan and black screen.
2. I tried putting back my old 2.5" and nothing but black screen.
Thoughts and suggestions?
Solved!

My Macbook Pro won't boot up, I don't have any discs...bought from Craigslist

I bought my Macbook Pro (2012 model) from Craigslist and only had it about a week, but this morning I couldnt boot it up. I didnt get any discs with this computer. Only the powercord. What can I do to get it to boot up and where can I go from there? There was a software update last night and this morning it won't boot up. Is my only option going to Apple Store? Is there anything else I can try to at least get it to boot up?? Thanks so much.

Yea, it has Mountain Lion on it. I have tried starting while holding down Command-R, and also the Comand R, Option P, and still won't let me boot up. I made an appointment for a Genius Bar... Is this who I make the appointment with for help with this? We checked the seriel number from "About this Mac" and we went to view that it had a few years left of apple care. It happened right after a software update. Wonder if that caused it. Is there viruses out there for Mac's and should I have a program to clean it up after I get it going or IF I get it going tonight? Thanks,
Curt
