    MSI X470 Gaming Plus, no boot, VGA LED on

    Hi there,

    First time post, and sadly for not so good news ^_^. This morning my PC did not start, I have some experience so I will try to bullet-point it down here:
    • No screen
    • VGA debug LED is on
    • All RAMs LED are on too

    I tried:
    • Removing all RAMs, and leaving only one
    • Reset CMOS using the provided button on the MBoard
    • Tried another GPU

    Now the interesting bits:
    • Without a GPU, the boot seems to go further (the keyboard lights up and I have no debug light on)
    • With a GPU plugged in, but without any power cable plugged to the GPU, I have the same behavior (VGA debug LED on)
    • I did a BIOS update about a week ago, and had a few boot since then, without any issue

    My next step was to try and change the Power unit, and last resort the whole MBoard, but maybe I am missing something?

    My setup:
    • MSI X470 Gaming Plus
    • GPU is RTX 2070
    • AMD proc

    Thanks for any help you might provide,
    RA
