Re: Pc died, now wont power up.




Just to make sure I read this right, you took all components out besides
motherboard and cpu?

Yes thats right.

You sai you tried a different PS. That makes me suspect
either motherboard or a grounding Issue.

Yea me too, although my limited experience is nothing to go by.

Make sure your cpu Is still seated
correctly. Make sure your fan is seated so the cpu Isn't overheating.

If overheating was the case, then at least it should power up, until
it overheats again, unless the cpu is fried.

Checkto make sure your motherboard hasnt shifted a bit and grounding out.

I will try that when i go back home, but my pc was in the same
position as it always has been when it died.

After checking all of this, remove everything from the motherboard except video,
cpu, and a stick of ram and see what happens.

Already done that and its a big fat nothing.
