Don't have spare keyboard or monitor, tested keyboard on a laptop and works fine everything was removed to put in a new case no errors seen as monitor blank, is the keyboard reliant on the bios maybe could reset the bios
Hello @reddwarf4ever,
There can beSettingsin theBIOSfor theKeyboardetc. It would be worth a look if theMonitorwas working !
UPDATE removed bios battery. Powered on pc got a message about setting bios to default, keyboard working, chose to reset bios but then keyboard stopped working again. Going to fit a new battery tomorrow and try again
Maybe don't worry then

Really confused, thought it was CPU temp, while pc was running checked and ok shut down pc wouldn't restart. Took bios battery out started in bios, then nothing, took out 5 pier usb card started up fine, then wouldn't restart, unplugged all HDDs except boot one, nothing keyboard not lighting up, each time I try something. mostly it starts up in bios or normal and KB, but won't restart KB dead again, replugged Memory, checked 24 pin connector all looks good, MOBO beeps once when starts ok other times no beep and nothing, earlier when I had the pc running I had a long beep every so often, which is why i checked CPU temp less than 30oC
Really don't know what to do now
Need some help please
Thanks in advance
KB tested on laptop 100% ok
Things are complicated because you changed everything when you moved the components to a new case.
You need to stop trying random things because you might make things worse.
Just connect the minimum things to at least see if you can get into the BIOS
- Make sure motherboard is placed correctly on standoffs and not shorted out.
- Make sure front panel wires are correctly plugged into motherboard
- The only components that need to be plugged into motherboard are CPU (with its cooler) and the RAM
- Make sure CPU cooler fan is plugged into dedicate motherboard connector called CPU_FAN
- Unplug all cards including the graphics card. (You won't need it for testing because your CPU has integrated graphics)
- Disconnect all drives.
- Make sure both power connectors are plugged in (24-pin ATX main power and 8-pin ATX 12V power)
- For testing purposed plug the monitor into the graphics port on the motherboard.
- Make sure power supply is plugged in and turned on (if it has a switch)
- Try to turn on the computer to see if you can get into the BIOS.
Did all as suggested and all checked reset bios using the mobo jumper the KB lights pressing DEL gives me the bios screen with 3 options so I can enter the bios but after saving and exiting it will not reboot and KB not working all fans working ok already installed a new cmos battery mobo GA F2 88XMD3H with latest bios
