Have you let your computer just sit there running for a few minutes? It might just need to memory train.
Do you get any error codes or beeps from the motherboard?
Does your CPU have onboard graphics you could try?
Make sure the monitor is on the correct input, even though they should auto switch it doesn't hurt to check.
How would I be able to hear the beeps? I can't exactly see an error code since I have no display
Does the motherboard have any LEDs? If you don't have a motherboard speaker, the motherboard sometimes shows LEDs to display an error code.
The boot light turns on, which according to the manual means I don't have a boot device, which is weird since a) I'm trying to boot into bios, and b) I have a fedora USB plugged in
It does. I notice that the CPU light turns on briefly but turns off. Is that bad?
You should lookup your motherboard manual or something to see what the LEDs mean. From what you say here, it sounds like the POST might be failing due to the CPU. Maybe try reinserting the CPU.
It could also be that it posts but then it should display and let you get into the bios. So not sure. It's hard to diagnose without more info.
The light means that the CPU is not detected, but it turns off quickly
Try reseating your CPU, check the pins to make sure you didn't bend one. Taking some photos and zooming in can help you get a better look.
According to the manual all of the lights are supposed to turn on briefly.
Sorry got busy and work. Any luck? None of lights stay on?
If not I would just double check and reseat everything, and for shits and giggles pull the cmos battery for 30s and put it back, if you haven't already.
If nothing else works I would be thinking about RMAing the mobo.
Only the boot light stays on even though I have a boot device. (And am trying to boot into bios)
If you can't hear anything does your motherboard have a display? Did it come with a little speaker? Look in your motherboards manual for the best way to get error signals.
Did you give your computer at least 5 min powered on though?
No i didn't, but my monitor shuts off every time it's connected to my computer so I can't wait that long
Your monitor doesn't matter just let the computer run for a few minutes then turn the monitor back on
Oh that's great, I'll see if it works
Did that happen to work for you?
No, still have no display and apparently have no boot device which is weird since I wrote fedora onto my usb drive
Got a parts list?
MSI mpg b650 wifi ATX Sapphire pure 7800xt Amd ryzen 7600x 32gb Corsair vengeance ddr5
I've done this multiple times and it's still
