Asrock Professional Z68 Gen3 board won't detect GPU or HDD/SSD (HELP PLEASE!)

[JakFrizz]

Hello i recently moved my build from the corsair 800d case to the corsair 650d case after wiring up all my hard drives and booting up i got an A6 error on dr. debug but this soon went away after enabling asmedia sata3 bootable. But now I am having a whole host of problems the motherboard is not detecting my hard drives and will not recognize my GPU either. I have tried flashing the bios and clearing the cmos but nothing helps. I have also attempted to re install windows but on the install page it says it cannot use the ssd due to the bios. Any help would be appreciated as i don't want to RMA the board.

make sure the battery is in properly,all it does is clear the cmos,its better than jumping the cmos pins,it cant/wont break or damage your mb

Its in properly, the pc is completely lifeless

no lights? cpu fan doesnt spin? did you power off pc before you removed battery? try leaving it out for longer it still could be badly corrupted cmos

It's working now, well powered up at least. The pc is on but no display coming through the monitor from both on board and from the gpu

i would check for any shorts seeing youve moved it to another case,then check all your psu cables/gpu cables and sata cables ect,you might need to leave mb battery out overnight,when you take battery out power pc down remove battery and hold in the front panel power switch to discharge all the power from the mb,then try,see if you get anything on the monitor

and dont worry removing mb battery is perfectly normal,it wont break anything

oh and try re seating your memory too,sometimes if its bumped or moved it will cause problems ect

i think somethings shorting somwhere or a cable isnt properly seated,re seat your gpu aswell just to makesure everything is fully clicked in

I don't think anything is shorting, I'm getting error a6 on dr.debug if that helps?

scsi detection it says in manual

SCSI - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

check you sata hdd/dvd/ssd drivesunplug and plug them back in a few times

I only have the ssd connected and that has been formatted, really don't know what to do

Re: Asrock Professional Z68 Gen3 board won't detect GPU or HDD/SSD (HELP PLEASE!)

did you set to ahci or ide in bios? try both modes

and does it give error if just a single hdd is plugged in?

made sure you have the right port for your ssd? intel sata3 port?

It automatically goes it IDE when I clear the CMOS but I change it to ahci and I still get the same error
