I think @SpyderTracks wanted to see the back with all the cables plugged in

here you got WHITE AND YELLOW light, one for VGA and one for BOOT?

 

[ChaAli]

Sorry about that - all cables in.

Some other forums said to hold F1 button when you start pc. I tried but didn't work for me.

There is a real strong WHITE light and then a weaker small yellow(almost green) light ontop of it when I boot it up.

Whilst the LEDs aren't indicating a RAM fault, I would remove all the RAM sticks and then put them back in again...sometimes a RAM stick not inserted properly can cause non-RAM issues.

If that doesn't work, then I would remove 2 of the RAM sticks (I think either slots 1 and 3 or 2 and 4..believe they would be labelled a1 and b1 and a2 and b2) and try that. There have been issues for some time with 4 sticks of 3600MHz RAM and, whilst you would think it would show up in testing, it's not guaranteed.

Chances are it's not the RAM but PCS may ask you to do what I suggested anyway so saves time

Attempted the above - removed ram 2 and 4 - recieved orange light now instead.
Reinserted all four now. Back to my white and yellow light.
Unfortunately didnt work.

Yes - tried removing 1 and 3 - Got white and yellow light.

did you try hold F1?

Just confirm, the PCIe power cables running from the PSU to the GPU, there should be two completely separate cables, not one going to a splitter, can you confirm if they are in fact two completely separate cables running to each 8pin?

 

[ChaAli]

Tried all different variation - think I inserted a ram incorrectly with the orange light.
They all give the same yellow and white light regardless which order i put them in.

 

[ChaAli]

ehm... i pressed F1... I don't know if there is a correlation. But I only have a white light now.

or because I removed all RAM sticks and reinserted.

I have this cable connected from PSU to GPU. 1 end in PSU and 2 8pin on the other side

I'm sorry - but im real bad with wiring. I have no prior experience in building. I can do the basic stuff or whats basic to me say.

I attached some pics for you. Top left of the chassi - some dangling wire. Not sure if that needs to be in somewhere.

So top left - I have two seperate wires going in. I assume the thing hanging out is the splitter.
Sorry if im talking rubbish - but i think that's what you are referring to.

Number 2 in line now to tech support. I hope i get through!

A splitter is just that, it's one cable that leads to 2 rather than 2 individual cables.

It's fine if it's 2 cables with just 1 part of the splitter in each port, but if it's only a single cable with both ends of the splitter plugged in then that's your problem.
