Got my computer parts yesterday, and have put it together, but when I start it up, I get the Q code error "76" on the motherboard LED, and no picture is being fed to my monitor, I also believe it doesn't even reach the BIOS setup.

reading the manual, the problem is described with "PCH DXE initialization problem".

I was going to post this on the ASUS ROG forums, but as registering is not working for me there, i'm trying here, so if anyone has any suggestion, they will be appreciated.

did you unplug it and plug it back in?

jk. have you tried diagnosing it by starting off with the PSU and CPU and powering it on? then add ram etc
