i have this problem with my pc, i have to start multiple time before it POST. is the problem fixable or i have to buy a new board and whats the course proplem?
Could be a number of things but I would guess it as being the board. My first thoughts would be that it's a BIOS update that caused it.
Firstly, what's the make and model of the board?
Secondly, have you updated the BIOS at all? If you have, did the problems occur before or after the update? If after, have you tried flashing to a previous or original version of your BIOS? If before, I'm guessing that updating the BIOS didn't help.
Thirdly, have you checked your board for any
swollen capacitors? Although if it's a new board, I'm guessing you have what they call
solid-state caps in which case it wouldn't be as noticeable and chances are a lot smaller that it'd be a blown cap. I also wouldn't recommend replacing a busted cap unless you've done it before and are comfortable doing so. I also wouldn't recommend it your board is still under warranty.
Fourthly, have you tried RMAing (having it replaced under warranty) it? If you have and the problem reoccurred, do you know under what circumstances it keeps reoccurring? Then again, I guess if you did, you'd know what would've been causing it
Fifthly, have you made sure that all your cables and components are properly seated?
These are the only things I could think it would be, and if you've tried everything and nothing has worked, RMA.
I know that with the MSI P7N Diamond, the most recent Award BIOS update (think it's 1.3) causes it not to POST until after a couple of starts.
Also, have you tried taking out all the components and putting them back one-by-one to see if it might be something else? Couldn't hurt.
