My Z77X-UD5H appears to have burnt out! I installed an LED strip on a toggle switch. I was booting up and turning my nice new LEDs on and off, when I noticed my system was dark!
At first I thought it was my power supply, since if I turned off the power supply for a while then turned it back on, the motherboard light would blink on briefly then go out. But J. Harris over in the PS forum helped me test it, and... NOPE! PS is fine!
Going back to the mobo, I tried pressing the reset button... each time I press it, the mobo LED blinks briefly, then goes dark. I think my motherboard is fried!
Is there anything I can do? How could an LED strip cause this?
