Hello i turned my pc off. Then after 10 mins i turned my pc on and its just not opening. Everything works at the case(gpu, mb, psu) but there is red light at my msi z170a pro on ez debug led. And while i was trying to open my pc up the light at startup button is just not working somehow(zalman z3plus). What can i do?

What board is that?

#

Msi z170a

#

Is there a possibility its from psu

#

Because the power button's light is not working

#

I checked power entries to that power button and it was plugged

Ok, what is the full model number of your board

umbral raft
#

Ah wait

#

I told you it wrong

#

Its z170 a pro

Well, i would check the voltages on the 12v rail, considering the age of the platform, reseating the cpu may help

You have your ram in the wrong slots. You need to put em in slots 2-4 or 1-3

#

Unless this is a mobo where the ones besides eachother are paired

The redlight is at cpu

#

Well it could be the cpu controller having issues with the way the ram is set up

the light being on cpu or ram is often irrelevant because either can be on with issues on the opposite thing
usually when i see broken ram the cpu light is on instead of the ram one

ram position became much more cruical on later boards with faster memory. as you want to make sure each channel that has memory in it is terminated properly

#

If you have checked the voltages on the psu

#

i would look into reseating the cpu

#

if its been in there for as long as i expect, repeated heating and cooling cycles could have caused a minor misalignment
