In the last month or so I've experienced some weird behavior from my PC (a few blue screens & random restarts). I thought it was a power supply issue, so I purchased a new power supply & also changed out the CMOS motherboard battery. I've also cleared out the CMOS on the motherboard itself. I also took out the RAM and tried to restart it with one stick at a time to see if my RAM was going bad, but to no avail. Finally I re-seated the graphics card to make sure it was seated properly.
Now I can't boot up at all. I get a black screen saying I have a CMOS checksum error. On the motherboard itself I get error code 9A "USB initialization is started". The keyboard will not let me get into the bios. I'm at a loss for what to do and would like some help before I have to spend some cash for someone else to tell me they don't know what's going on either.
Here's my hardware:
