I purchased a cheap used board, i5 6600 is working. I can safely confirm the EVGA Z170 Stinger motherboard is the problem
Would anyone have any suggestions what I could do going forward before scrapping the board?
So far I've tried:
- Reseating functioning RAM, using different functioning RAM in all combinations possible
- Swapping functioning CPUs (i3 6100 & i5 6600)
- Clearing CMOS
- Replacing CR2032 battery (both checked with a meter confirmed at 3V)
- Cleaning (using mass airflow sensor cleaner) bios chip socket and reseating bios chip
- 2 different functioning power supplies
- Checking CPU pins, they seem ok
If I remove the CPU from the socket and boot the motherboard, I get 'C' error. Good.
Else anything else I do - error code '0d', flicks to 'C' for a moment, then back to '0d'.
Is there a way to reflash the bios in this state? Else would a bad bios chip cause the board to behave this way?
Thanks
