    White Screen issue after near complete re - build

    Asus m4a785td-m evo no post/ video

    The wrong one John. So angry with myself. I checked the cpu support list with relevent bios revisions. I ordered an am3 sempron 145 2.8ghz it turns out I thought I was ordering the right chip but this one is only supported from bios 2005 upwards so yet again I have a black screen. I need the...

    Damn it. The chip does not fit. It has two too many pins apart from that the layout is nearly the same. Sempron from 05. Ive ordered an am3 sempron instead from eBay for £5. Its listed on the boards cpu list for its current bios.

Found a spare mobo speaker and plugged it in. No beeps or video output with any of the above ram configurations. Lots of fast beeps like...

    Changed boot order/ priority. Now black screen on boot up

    John you are right I think. Just had the guy at my local pc repair place tell me that when I switched to my hdd I probably corrupted the boot files for windows 10 on my ssd. Some well known bug on win 10 apparently? But not to me...until now that is.

Obviously I can make sure the data on my hdd is safe by pulling the data cable out. But if I re install windows 10 on my ssd will I be...
