hello i have just bought msi x99 gaming 9 ack it all running with i7 5930k but getting no signal at monitor or no turning on of keyboard. tried different gpu only one ram in. tried different pcie slots still nothing so can't get in to bios to set up or install windows please help thanks
also getting debug codes 04 55 60.
it powers up and runs bu

-------------

so i have just phoned the place i got my bits from no help at all says i have to trouble shoot it myself any help please

-------------

update system now working with one stick in slot 5. tried all sticks in 5 one failed to go to bios with 6f. now could this just need a bios update to fix slot 1 as that won't work with any of the sticks. or do you think slot 1 broken and needs rma thanks in advance

before you RMA anything you could try a bios update as you say, or reset CMOS. Not sure if that will help with a troublesome slot but if no sticks work, then it could be a DOA slot?
 
Dont take this the wrong way but make sure you are fitting them right too both in the slots correctly and putting them in the right slot.

Can you post a photo please because you shouldnt be fitting the ram in the slot closest to the CPU - it wont work.

If you read the manual it tells you what slots to fit the memory too
 
hello tom i have put ram in the nearest on to the rear i.o slot 1 then missed one slot 2 then one in slot 3 put one then missed slot 4 nearest cpu then missed 8 slot nearest cpu other side then put one in slot 7 nothing in 6 then put one in slot five nearest oc genie button. but did not boot so tried slot one with all 4 dims and above debugs no boot. so i have put one in slot nearest oc genie button and working apart from one ram followed instruction manual

hello tom put photo on twitter @oc3d phone is being stupid won't let me upload to anywhere else stupid windows phone lol

hello i am using g.skill f4-2400c15q-16grk which is on the web site as comparable but says grr which i have figured thats just the colour of the the ram.
ok so the other day had ram working in slots 1/3/7/5 now updated bios to 2.3 but ram is still not working.
only three sticks work in slot 5 but 1 stick won't work at all. just tried slots 1/3/5 which is triple channel mode and not working.
also usb not working properly i have to unplug mouse to get it to show back up so i think this is motherboard problem
what do you think

If you use just one memory stick will the system boot up and if so have you tried all 4 sticks one at a time to make sure the memory kit is not faulty.
 
i have tried one stick at a time in slot five one out of the four fails to post. comes up with 6f. did have it working with one in 5 and one in 7 but 1/3 would not take anything just came up with boot loop 04/55/60 been on the phone today sending motherboard back and ram for replacement.also the two usb for keyboard and mouse would occasionally stop working if i rebooted. so will just have to wait and see what overlockers says. hopefully its just motherboard and ram issue because i got my 5930k from another shop and only have a 28 day no quibble issurence
