Hello!

After scouring all the topics similar to mine, I still haven't managed to get my new PC to work; I'm starting to get a bit frustrated, haha...

My setup is:

motherboard: asus rog strix Z490 E gaming

CPU: intel i7 11700k

power supply cooler master 850 gold V2

cooler: be quiet dark rock slim

graphics card: RTX 2060

SO:") my problem is that when I turn on the PC, all the fans spin, the RGB of the keyboard lights up, BUT the CPU LED flashes red and nothing appears on my screen.

I unplugged and plugged everything back in and I finally found THE cable that's causing the issue, it's the power cable at the top left (I think it powers the CPU), but if I unplug it, nothing happens.

Does anyone have any idea what mistake I might have made?

Thanks in advance.

Hello, the cable for the CPU has yellow wires on one side of the connector and black on the other. If this is not the case and there are multiple colors, it is the connector that goes to the mainboard in addition to the 20 or 24 pin connector depending on the type of motherboard.

Hello, I had already checked all the cables and everything was correct, it turns out that my motherboard needed its BIOS updated to support my processor, so I solved the problem!
