MSI Z77A - GD55 mother board. Does not start.

Hi
My completely new computer does not start. It's completely dead. (worked fine yesterday)
There is a power button / lamp on the mother board, it blinks continually when power is connected. Nothing at all happens when I press the computers power button or the power button on the mother board.
Is this a problem with the mother board or could it be the power supply that has failed?
thanks for any help at all

My system:
Cool Master HAF X Big Tower
MSI Z77A - GD55 Socket 1155
XFX ProSeries Core Edition 550W PSU
Intel LGA1155 Core i7 - 3770
Corsair Cooling Hydro H60 CPU cooler
Corsair XMS3 1600MHz 16GB Vengance CL9
Gainward GeForce GTX670 2GB GDDR5 PCI-E
Samsung SSD 830 Series 256GB BK SATA3.0
I have yet not tested to do any changes on the hardware. I have only tested switching power cable. (not sure why it would help, but I tried it anyway)

Msi Z77A-GD55 (no beep on the start up)Help!

hi all
I did build a computer with the msiZ77A-GD55, and when I started up the computer I never had A beep ? so I am worried to take the next step. could someone help me please ?
I get the bios up by pressing (DEL) it gives me the temp. recognized the i52500k etc.. I get the priority boot with (F11) the fans are working, but no beep is that normal? should I cary on and try installing windows7? if anyone could explain what to do I would be very great full thank you .

Beep codes will only and solely require a speaker connected to the onboard's JFP2 connector (internal speaker) it has nothing to do with external speakers connected to the onboard or an add-on soundcard. As you seem not to have any problem anyway I don't see the issue here.
thenewoc,
what's this Windows 8 post and what has it to do with topic?

My 2011 MacBook Pro does not start and stop after the apple appear, they said that the problem is a video problem and need to change the logic board. Cost almost same to buy a new one. Somebody have the same problem?

I have a MacBook Pro early 2011. Does not start. After the apple show, a blank screen appear. The service said that the problem is with the video plaquue in the logic board. Need to change. Cost lmmost the same than a new MacBook Pro. Somebody has the same problem? What we can do?

I hate to break this to you, but life isn't fair. If your job is that critically in need of a computer, then you should have a spare to use for just this kind of situation or have your employer provide you with a computer to use.
Computers break down, just like cars. If your car breaks down do you curse the car maker or get it fixed? Surely, you paid more for your car than the computer.
This is reality. Best get used to it because it won't get any better.

Onboard audio dead on MSI Z77A-GD55

I think my onboard audio on my MSI Z77A-GD55 has broke no matter what it just says not plugged in i've tried a reinstalling drivers, cmos reset and a fresh install of windows but it still says not plugged in.
Digital output seems to be working tho.
Doe's it sound like its dead to you guys and should i RMA the board?
The nvidia hdmi audio works fine its just not plugged in on the pic.

Which are you using ? front panel or I/O ?
Did you connect the front case panel ? If so, have you ensured that you used the HD one ? Disconnect the front panel audio for now to check if a short may be causing this problem.
I've tried that and all audio output are doing it once it randomly said the speakers were plugged in, but even tho windows was showing it was playing sound my speakers and my headphones that both 100% work didn't play anything

MSI Z77A-GD55

good morning,
I have a card MOTHER MSI Z77A-GD55 that I have sent in the sav of the Store or I l 'ai bought.
They say to me qu 'il be able to make nothing because pines are twisted that I owe the product turned to the producer. My PC has turned very well since December before turning it in the sav of the store.
I think that c 'est they who twisted pines otherwise my pc n 'aurait never worked since December. I would like I would know how how make I thank you

As your post isn't entirely in English it is quite hard to understand but I guess pins in your board's socket are bent and reseller refuses to rma it.
Physical damage is not covered by warranty but MSI is usually quite accommodating when it comes to bent pins. If reseller refuses rma contact MSI about it maybe they can assist you or takeover rma process: >>How to contact MSI.<<
Unfortunately there is no direct rma to MSI in Europe so it would be an exceptional case if they'd take over. Also like said before bent pins are not necessarily covered.

T400 does not start up with a battery and AC, but starts up with only AC.

I bought T400, 7417-CTO in Jan 2010. My T400 does not start up with a battery and AC power. I tried to start with only AC power after pulling out the battery, it worked fine. Even when I inserted the battery in T400, which was running perfectly with AC only, T400 seems to lose the power - more strictly speaking, it kept stoping and re-running several times, and finally it dead.
a few possibilities
1) a battery is dead - but it does not explain the failure with both AC and battery
2) some hibernation issue - I plugged in and out the DIMM, and clock battery. I tried to keep pushing the power button trick, but it didn't work
3) Mother board failure??
I really appreciate if you give me some advice on it.
Wanyong

Thanks for all your kind and helpful comments.
Unfortunately, I don't have any friends who have Lenovo - or I don't have many friends here since I moved in the last summer. ;-)
After purchasing a new battery, I will update it. Hope that this thread helps someone who had/will have same prob. as mine.

Intel Gigabit 1000 CT device some times does not start

Configuration:
========
875P Neo FIS2R, 300W PSU, Bios v1.6, Memory 2 x 256MB DDR 400 populated with Samsung chips in 1st and 3rd slots, 1 x WD400 40GB PATA, 1 x Seagate 160GB SATA (will install another one for RAID later), Sony CDRW, Dynamic overclocking turned OFF, No other overclocking applied, OS Win 2K Server (SP4), MSI FX5200 graphics card, On board audio enabled and installed drivers. So far no other problem other than the one described below
Issue:
===
Some times the Gigabit LAN device starts and other times it does not start. For the time being the RJ45 is not hooked up to anything (I.e. no external Hub or Switch). I have not established what could make it start or not, I do not change anything really, it seem random. Under device manager when it fails to start the error returned says that drivers could not be loaded because the device could not be started (error code 10).
This occured right from the begining, I have this motherbard for 3 days now. The machine has only the OS and the drivers loaded. no other software that could cause the problem. Only drivers from the MSI device driver CD have been loaded in the sequence stated.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Make that TWO boards with the same identical problem. The first one being the LAN and the second one being after clearing CMOS that the board won't POST or anything. Talked to MSI Tech Support on this one. All he could tell me is that it seemed really odd that the same problems happened twice in a row to me. He had me try all kinds of things, but he didn't get me any further than I got myself.

One reboot I joined a domain, and after the reboot trying to log on to the domain it told me it wasn't there, and logging on to the local PC found that the LAN was not working. But I have other problems now. The system won't boot and the D-Bracket LED shows to be hanging on "Testing RTC (Real Time Clock)."

[Help] MSI radeon 7870 2GB OC problem on MSI - Z77A-GD55

Installed my new GPU onto my MSI - Z77A-GD55 , but monitor stays in power save mode , switched the GPU to the lower PCI2.0 slot (there are 3 of them) top 2 are PCIE 3.0 and the lowest is 2.0 and it worked , but the problem my GPU Fans cannot fit because of the USB/POWER ON-OFF top case buttons(wires) since its right next to the PCI 2.0 slot.
Bios is updated to the latest version 1.11
PCI-gen3 is on Auto in the bios settings (There is only Auto and Disable) option.
Any one has this issue before?

Quote from: flobelix on 02-January-14, 21:07:20
Did any card before work in the PCI-E 3.0 slots?
Yes my old ati radeon 4670 BUT i had this issue again first time i added the old GPU right as i bought the motherboard (1 year ago ) where my screen would be in Power save mode , but i removed my ram , removed power cable to drain power , and my GPU worked , from that i never removed / added anything in my computer (hardware wise) so this problem was here right from the start , the thing is i fixed it the 1st time , but i did had the 1.1 bios (even though i tried installing the new GPU on the 1.1 version and it didnt worked so i updated my bios to 1.11 and still the same issue)
Also as this motherboard has 3 PCI slots 2 are PCIE3 and the lowest is 2.0 (on 2.0 my old/new GPU works fine , devise manager sees it and drivers working aswell) but not on the other 2 PCIEx3 slots , maybe the top PCIE ex3 slot is broken, but the 2nd PCIe3 slot i never installed anything there, and still doesnt work aswell , so i think its either some issue in the BIOS settings
Some bios settings i could find that has to do with GPU
PCI Subsystem Settings : PCie GEN3 [Auto] / Latency Timer [32 PCi bus Clocks] /
Integrated Graphics Devises : Initiate Graphics Adapter [ PEG] / Initiate Graphics Share memory [32mb] / DVMT Memory [128mb] / IGD Multimonitor [Disabled]

Reads to me like you probably have changed the 'CPU Core Engine Speed' setting out of Auto? Probably cooked the mainboard's MOSFETS. What was the CPU V. set at and for how long a period?
Nop. And voltage was set to 1.33 for a year.

IAS does not start when using SSL

Hello all,
I hope I hit the correct board for this question and search did find anything useful for my Problem.
We have a couple of Oracle Databases which are using IAS to serve a PL/SQL and Perl based WepApp. The Databases are 10g (10.2.0.3), and the Servers are running Novell SLES 9 x86_64 (SP 3). We need https on these Machines, so I configured the Server for SSL, created a Certificate using Wallet Manager and so on, exactly as described in the Documentation.
However when I try to start the HTTP Server with "ssl-enabled" in opmn.xml to enable SSL it does not start any more. It simply cannot load the "mod_ossl.so" Library:
Logfile says:
/opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/http_1/Apache/Apache/bin/apachectl startssl: execing httpd
Syntax error on line 246 of /opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/http_1/Apache/Apache/conf/httpd.conf:
Cannot load /opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/http_1/Apache/Apache/libexec/mod_ossl.so into server: /opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/http_1/Apache/Apache/libexec/mod_ossl.
so: undefined symbol: dbm_firstkey
I have googled and searched Metalink but did not find anything useful. I assume that "dbm_firstkey" refers to the GNU database routines (gdbm), but I am kinda stuck right now. Has anyone stumped upon this maybe?
Kind Regards
Maik

Two issues:
- this does not look like OracleAS, but like the HTTP Server from the database;
- you seem to be loading a 32 bit process (apache/httpd) into a 64 bit shell.
try starting it within 'linux32 bash' instead.

My iMac does not start.

My iMac does not start. When I turn it on, it stays loading in the half and doesn't continue. Some days before I had updated my iMac to Yosemite 10.10. Everything was ok but yesterday I decided tu reboot it and when it was turning on this happened, it kept stuck at the middle of the bar. I have the latest model of MacBook Air '13.

Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.
To restart an unresponsive computer, press and hold the power button for a few seconds until the power shuts off, then release, wait a few more seconds, and press it again briefly.
Step 1
The first step in dealing with a startup failure is to secure the data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since the last backup, you can skip this step.
There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to start. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
a. Start up from the Recovery partition, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.” The article refers to starting up from a DVD, but the procedure in Recovery mode is the same. You don't need a DVD if you're running OS X 10.7 or later.
b. If Step 1a fails because of disk errors, and no other Mac is available, then you may be able to salvage some of your files by copying them in the Finder. If you already have an external drive with OS X installed, start up from it. Otherwise, if you have Internet access, follow the instructions on this page to prepare the external drive and install OS X on it. You'll use the Recovery installer, rather than downloading it from the App Store.
c. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, start the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
d. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
Step 2
If the startup process stops at a blank gray screen with no Apple logo or spinning "daisy wheel," then the startup volume may be full. If you had previously seen warnings of low disk space, this is almost certainly the case. You might be able to start up in safe mode even though you can't start up normally. Otherwise, start up from an external drive, or else use the technique in Step 1b, 1c, or 1d to mount the internal drive and delete some files. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation.
Step 3
Sometimes a startup failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM.
Step 4
If a desktop Mac hangs at a plain gray screen with a movable cursor, the keyboard may not be recognized. Press and hold the button on the side of an Apple wireless keyboard to make it discoverable. If need be, replace or recharge the batteries. If you're using a USB keyboard connected to a hub, connect it to a built-in port.
Step 5
If there's a built-in optical drive, a disc may be stuck in it. Follow these instructions to eject it.
Step 6
Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to start up, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can start up now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
Step 7
If you've started from an external storage device, make sure that the internal startup volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
Start up in safe mode. Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know the login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
When you start up in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, the startup volume is corrupt and the drive is probably malfunctioning. In that case, go to Step 11. If you ever have another problem with the drive, replace it immediately.
If you can start and log in in safe mode, empty the Trash, and then open the Finder Info window on the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) Check that you have at least 9 GB of available space, as shown in the window. If you don't, copy as many files as necessary to another volume (not another folder on the same volume) and delete the originals. Deletion isn't complete until you empty the Trash again. Do this until the available space is more than 9 GB. Then restart as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)
If the startup process hangs again, the problem is likely caused by a third-party system modification that you installed. Post for further instructions.
Step 8
Launch Disk Utility in Recovery mode (see Step 1.) Select the startup volume, then run Repair Disk. If any problems are found, repeat until clear. If Disk Utility reports that the volume can't be repaired, the drive has malfunctioned and should be replaced. You might choose to tolerate one such malfunction in the life of the drive. In that case, erase the volume and restore from a backup. If the same thing ever happens again, replace the drive immediately.
This is one of the rare situations in which you should also run Repair Permissions, ignoring the false warnings it may produce. Look for the line "Permissions repair complete" at the end of the output. Then restart as usual.
Step 9
If the startup device is an aftermarket SSD, it may need a firmware update and/or a forced "garbage collection." Instructions for doing this with a Crucial-branded SSD were posted here. Some of those instructions may apply to other brands of SSD, but you should check with the vendor's tech support.
Step 10
Reinstall the OS. If the Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
Step 11
Do as in Step 9, but this time erase the startup volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically restart into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer the data from a Time Machine or other backup.
Step 12
This step applies only to models that have a logic-board ("PRAM") battery: all Mac Pro's and some others (not current models.) Both desktop and portable Macs used to have such a battery. The logic-board battery, if there is one, is separate from the main battery of a portable. A dead logic-board battery can cause a startup failure. Typically the failure will be preceded by loss of the settings for the startup disk and system clock. See the user manual for replacement instructions. You may have to take the machine to a service provider to have the battery replaced.
Step 13
If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.

10.6 does not start up

Hello,
my Mac-Mini (Snow Leopard) does not start up properly. By following some hints in an other forum I tried to get rid of an old Norton installation. I moved the mentioned files in the trash. After restarting it booted until the blue screen appears.
There is no reaction to the 10.6. install disc or any keyboard command (like ⌘T, ⌘S, ⌘D or any other)
It is now for one week at my local dealer but they hadn't time to check for it.
So, any suggestions here?
Thanks in advance....

install disc or any keyboard command (like ⌘T, ⌘S, ⌘D or any other)
Only the 'S' key needs a modifier key with the Apple (also known as Command) key at startup, with an Apple keyboard, arget Disk Mode, hardware test, and Option key for Startup Manager do not need a command key.
It is now for one week at my local dealer but they hadn't time to check for it.
Ask for it back from the dealer, and make sure you check for the following.
1. Does it have 2, 4, or 5 USB ports on rear?
distinguishes between Firewire, USB, and ethernet.
If it has only 2 USB ports on the rear, it can't run Snow Leopard, and can only run Leopard.
2. If it has 4 or 5 USB ports, check the serial number:
less than xx935xxxx can use Snow Leopard retail which looks like * and does not say Upgrade, DropIn, or OEM.
xx936xxxx and later can only use the Mac Mini Snow Leopard installer disc that shipped with it. Do not state the full serial number to us here in Discussions, as we are only end users, and this board is searchable. The three digits enumerated above are the only ones of any consequence for determining the age of the Mac. x can mean any value.
3. If the startup manager does not work with the correct disc above, you have a hardware issue.
4. If the hardware test runs but detects no issue with the Mac, but the instalelr won't run for 10.6 with the correct disc, you have possibly a RAM issue.
5. If the installer is able show its installation screen to start an installation, you may have damage to the hard drive's directory, and have to either first recover your backup, if you have one that is bootable, or attempt a data recovery as done here*:
http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html#RECOVER
6. Once you are recovered, or know you are backed up, check the directory*:
http://www.macmaps.com/directoryfaq.html
If the directory is fine, and it won't boot, attempt a data recovery to an erase and installed system only if you have at least two backups.
If you can't fix the directory, you may need to replace your hard drive.
