Came home on Friday and my system (in specs) had shut down.
Turned it on, fans spin up, rgb lights up....no signal to monitor. Checked th hdmi cable and monitor they are ok.

Debug LED shows "U0" on power up, never changes. Cleared CMOS, no change. Removed GPU, no change. Removed RAM, no change.

Can't find this code in the manual or anywhere online. Waiting on Gigabyte support to respond in "3-7 days" :bleh:
 
Are you sure it's not 00, and there might be a digit out on the post-code LED?

Was there any sort of thunderstorm while you were gone? Was the PC doing any work load while you left it running 24/7?

IDK, thought about that but there's no way to tell.

Plugged into a UPS/ surge protector that shows no events.

all devices unplugged. Will get new battery for CMOS, but....

looked at it this morning before i left . plugged the ram back in and plugged in the power cord and hit the switch on the psu.. The small red lights on the mobo lit up....but so did the lights on the RAM. (I hadn't trun it on yet).

*&%@!

That cant be good. Suspect mobo crapped the bed for whatever reason.

:(
 
Gigabyte mobo .. can't say I'm surprised if it did die, tbh.

I'd try a new mobo first, judging by what you've said thus far..
 
Id do a usb bios flashback on it if you can. Or switch to secondary bios if theres a switch.
 
Looks like your board does have Q-Flash with no CPU required. I would try doing that with a USB drive. Check the manual (can do that online) as it may require you to name the BIOS file something specific - my MSI board does that.
