No input with integrated graphics RMA'd motherboard same problem with new one.

[idata]

I get a b2 error code on my MSI mpower motherboards. I RMA'd it and received a new board about a month later and I get the same debug code. I posted to the official msi forums and a couple other forums, they have came to the same conclusion that It is a faulty CPU. I have tested with two sets of different known working ram. Cleared CMOS multiple times. I have tried a gtx 560 that I know works. I have had the board in and out of the case so not a grounding problem. The triangle on the cpu is facing the correct way, I have built a couple computers before so I know what I am doing. The board powers on, all the phase led's light up and the cpu fan spins. I have all 3 power connectors connected and my monitor says no signal and can't get into the bios (obviously). I was wondering if there was anything else I could do before sending in the cpu.

Any help is appreciated.

Hello Andrew Johansen,

Would you please let us know detail information about the system you are running? Is there a chance you can test this processor into a known working unit or even test another processor into the same motherboard?

I do not have a spare mobo or processor to test. It is a i7 3770k and a z77 msi mpower motherboard, 16gb of g.skill sniper series ram. I have tried samsung and adata ram I have that I know works. I was just wondering if anyone could think of anything else I could try besides trying a new board/processor. The chances of getting two bunk boards are low but not unheard of and I would hate to send the processor in and it be fine. Thanks for the reply.

Hello Andrew Johansen,

If you followed all the steps recommended by the manufacturer of the motherboard, the last and only option will be placing a Video card and try again. However, this will be a suggestion in case that the integrated graphics of your CPU are not functioning.

In case you need to replace the processor please call us at 916 377 7000 option 3 if you are located in North America,
