MSI Z170A VCORE power issue

[McWhitePink]

I have this motherboard, powers, but no VCORE.
I tried remove CPU and short J2 to force the VRM controller work, and all phases output correctly.
but once I install the CPU, the phases are off.

I checked the VRM_EN, VCC, looks no issue.
What else should I check? Is it the VRM controller issue?

Thanks

U can try flash your bios first. For this series, it will go to bios and ask bios to generate signal to cpu.

Thanks, I tried flash it, but it's the same. Maybe my CPU is dead, don't have other CPU for testing.
Will a dead CPU still pull power from VRM?
