Thank you very mich
the bios is cleared now and I can access to the bios
but the amber led still blinking

does it boot and load windows ok? you need to redo all bios settings. also might have to do frusdr update and configure chassic and cpu fan if you haven't done that before

 

[AzeeeD]

windows not installed yet I'm just got the mobo today
can you please help me on that? I don't understand what you said

 

[AzeeeD]

Another thing, the motherboard take a long time to boot
I have put on the psu 3 min ago and the mobo still off, only two green led are on

so you were able to get back into bios after bios default reset but after you change some setting now when you hit the power button it doesn't turn on anymore?

even with amber light blinking as long as you can boot into bios fine, save setting, reset and it allows you to boot through again, you are fine for now. and yes does take long to boot but I don't think should be 3 min

 

[AzeeeD]

I don't change anything in the bios, just I enter then exit without saving
I restared the mothberboard and its still off, two green leds are on

 

[wildpig1234]

did you connect a boot hard drive yet?

 

[AzeeeD]

Yes I removed the hard drive now and tried to power on the motherboard but the same thing, green lights are one but still no sounds or boot

 

[wildpig1234]

should leave the boot hd connected. flip the power switch on the psu to off, wait a little, flip back to on, then hit the power button to power up the board and see if anything happen.

 

[AzeeeD]

I tried that three times but still the same thing.

 

[wildpig1234]

so you can't get into bios anymore? if that's the case, you need to reset to default again and go into bios and start configuring it.

 

[AzeeeD]

The motherboard not power on ever, just the two green leds only
What configuration can I do after reset? I don't know that

 

[wildpig1234]

are you able to get back into bios again?

you ever done build a system before? most of the bios settings are similar . set up boot drive .. enable hyperthread, ahci, . etc

if you can't get back to bios even after bios default reset then would be a problem.

 

[AzeeeD]

I have access to bios now after reset, but the amber led still blink again and other amber lads are also on
This is my first build, can we have an instant conversation on Skype if you have some free time?

 

[wildpig1234]

amber status light will keep blinking til frusdr is updated with chassic fan info, but that's not needed to boot or run windows.

I don't have access to the s2600 right now to check on all the bios setting. but the other lights should be green. most of the bios settings are fairly similar. make sure it sees all the memory and cpu and your boot drive correctly and also correctly saved as the right boot drive in the bios. set boot cd and usb priority and try to see if it will load up windows install.

 

[AzeeeD]

I have access to bios now and the amber lights still blinking, there is two leds on and one blinking
So, I need to flash bios then all will be fine?

 

[wildpig1234]

I was able to install win10 without upgrading bios. mine came with the earliest bios. you should be able to get it to boot up the windows install cd and install windows successfully even with the current bios. if not then something is not correct.

So you have some of the diagnostic led showing amber? don't worry about the system status led blinking amber for now.

 

[AzeeeD]

I installed Windows 10 too now, and I flashed the bios to the latest version But every time I turned off the motherboard he doesn't turn on untile bios reset and amber led still like the always 2 are on and one blinking
