I received my RMA replacement for my previous defective motherboard, which at least ran, and now in this build, the motherboard wont boot.
The first time I push the power button, the lights flash for a millisecond and the fans start to spin, but then it goes dead. Subsequent presses of the power button do nothing.
I know it is not the power supply since it worked with my previous motherboard just fine, and also worked with the paper clip test (paper clip to green and black wire powers up the PSU fan). Removing the ATX 2x4 connector cause the motherboard to power on for a half second and then turn off repeatedly until I turned the PSU off. I also tried to reconnect the ATX plugs multiple times to no avail.
Any ideas on why I can't power up?
Motheboard:
GIGABYTE GA-P55A-UD3 (Rev 2.0)
PSU:
OCZ ModXStream Pro OCZ700MXSP 700W
Thanks for the help!
