Hello I have a msi mag b660 wifi ddr4 board that I'm unable to get to power on. Ive bought it off a auction site so no history on the board and no warranty, got it super cheap, trying to make a budget build and it backfired.
I've tried to jump the power pins and also hook up the power switch from my case and no signs of life.
i have jump the power supply while not connected to the board to confirm power supply is good and it is.
I have installed the cpu, ram and graphics card than removed them one by one to rule out them as a fault.
im now leaning towards something is wrong with this board, maybe a shorted component? I have limited electrical knowledge and only have a multimeter. If anyone knows of the area I should be checking that is maybe connected to the power switch and point it out that would be great
thanks in advance for your help, I really don't want this turning ewaste even if I have to buy equipment to fix it.
