Got a new pc 3 weeks ago, my dad bought it, and today I was playing some ArmA 3 when I started getting 10 fps when I usually get about 40 ish, So I asked my friend on teamspeak and he said check any processes running in background, none, so I enabled AMD overdrive in the catalyst control panel and restarted, nothing, My monitor turns on like something is showing, a lighter grey appears, then it turns back off, and continues doing the same, computer is on and working (fans and lights) all cables are in, I have tried leaving it unplugged and flushing energy by pressing power button when turned off,still dosent work, not even BIOS startup screen shows.
Heres the problem.
my parents will be really me mad at me if they find out, I have read up about opening it and resetting it with a buttton, but if I ask for a screwdriver they will ask why, and then I will probably be in a LOT of trouble,that and Im very uncomfortable with messing with pc parts as I have no clue. My pc does have a 2 year warranty but Im wondering if its voided from messing with BIOS ?
is there any other way? I'm really worried as Im only 14 and this is my first proper PC.
