Hello,

I am wondering if anyone else has had the experience I have had...

I finally decided to build a new machine and have not been able to get it to boot yet. No matter what I try I get a rapidly blinking power LED.

Here is what I have:
- MOBO: Asus Prime Z690-P WIFI
- CPU: i7-12700K
- Cooler: Noctua NH-D15
- RAM: VENGEANCE 32GB (2x16GB) DDR5 DRAM 4800MHz C40 (CMK32GX5M2A4800C40)
- SSD: Samsung 970 Pro
- GPU: NVidia GTX 960

When I press the power button it appears to power on normally but I never get the BIOS post screen and monitor never turns on. The power LED starts flashing rapidly pretty much immediately. I tried swapping the RAM around all the possible slot combinations, tried removing it completely. I get beeps with memory error code with RAM completely removed. No beeps when the RAM is in. Tried 2 different GPU's. Checked and rechecked every connection. Removed and disconnected everything except the bare minimum and still get the same thing.

Any input appreciated.

Thanks.

I recently built my first PC with this beautiful PSU case. Everything is working fine. Except a minor issue.

The power LED (square white light with the power-on switch at the front panel) on the Asus AP201 PC case keeps blinking every other day (after a gap of say 24 hours or so). The PC doesn't hang or freeze and I am able to use it normally as the light blinks. The temperatures too are normal. The "problem" resolves itself once I restart the PC.

My PC serves as a server and I keep it running 24x7. I'm running Ubuntu on it with "Balanced" power settings.

Could you help me figure this out? Thanks.

[Edit - I opened the PC case and double checked the cables. Everything is fine. I'm not certain that this is an Ubuntu standby settings idiosyncrasy.]
