Hello all and Happy New-Year!!
specs in case
Msi gaming 3 - mb
G.skill Sniper 1866 9-10-9 - ram
4690k under Cooler Master 612 ver.2 - cpu and cooler
R9 290x - video card
Evga 750w - power supply
As some of you may know, I killed my mb in my daily drivereek. The replacement, an MSI gaming 3, is having some weidr issue with the power and reset buttons. I connect the pw + rs, built into the case, cm 430 elite, to where they go on the mb (kinda standard). All connected fine so I try to power up and nothing at all happens. I find the manual and make certain all is connected properly (and it is) but no power or any signs of anything. I am just about to tear down and rebuild (pita with the cm 612 v2 air cooler attached) but before I do I take a small flat-head screwdriver and jump the pins manually. The computer comes to life.
Now I have been using the screwdriver to start my pc for 2 - 3 days. My question, what is going on here, help?
I guess I should clarify that the buttons are/were working fine on all my other stuff, I've taken them out of the case and tried them on other pc just to be sure.
