Hello,

I received my GIGABYTE GA-J1800N-D2H today. But I have some issues with it, it doesn't start. I already posted here (in german), but as here are some guys owning one, too, I thought that I'll get better help here.

What I did:

- plugged in an 20 pin connector from my (quite old) 300 watt psu.
- Installed 1x 4 GB Ram in the first slot
- connected USB keyboard and mouse
- connected VGA (I prefer HDMI, but the manual says, that the BIOS can't be displayed over it)

When I start it, the only reaction I get, is that the fan of the PSU starts and my wattmeter shows a power consumption of 20 watts. Nothing else.

Questions:

- Does this mainboard work with USB keyboards?
- Is it possible that the old PSU can't handle this low power consumption properly?
- Is it correct that there is no beeper installed? Other mainboards tell you what's wrong with them through a ton sequence

Make sure you have a 1,35V capable DDR3L-RAM. Normal 1,5 ones don't work. BIOS works over HDMI and USB keyboards also work, although sometimes there are issues with certain keyboards. And there is no beeper, LED or whatever on the motherboard to show you what is wrong. Try booting without any RAM and it shouldn't be any different than booting with a wrong RAM. I had the same issue and wrote about it on the hardwareluxx forum linked in the post above mine.
