It may be a bad ribbon cable. If you have a sppare pc try switching the ribbon cables around

o and i cant take out the ribbons i dont wana break it so is there a way u can teach me how to take the 2 ribbons out

[Mobo]

Its very easy.

First thing is do one complete exchange at a time so you dont get them crossed. Also you will notice that on one side there is a red stripe on the ribbon. That is important and must go in the same way they came out.

Just remove one end, replace it with the new then go onto the other end to minimize mistake possinilities.

i think i know what your sayin but just so i dont make any mistankes make it sound a little easier like what to do first like kinda like in this forma.

1. open cover
2. unplug red ribbon
ect. ect.

The ribbon isnt red. It just has a thin red strip down one side.
