Hi all,
I've googled around for a few days now and I cannot seem to troubleshoot this problem.
I built my PC maybe 3-4 years and I've had no problems. I had my computer in storage for 6 months and had some issues, and I was able to reinstall windows and get it working. Another 6 months and now I'm stuck.
Booted my computer and it got stuck at the windows logo. Tried booting from both the windows 7 recovery disc and the installation disc, both turned the screen blank after "Windows is loading files". Switched to another HDD and the same thing happened. Tried reseating my RAM, nothing. I tried unplugging everything and plugging it in.
From my brothers computer one at a time I tried checking the CD drive, RAM, video card. I am able to get to the BIOS menu and tried loading defaults, nothing. Unplugged all USB. I installed a fresh copy of windows on the HD from my brothers PC and now I'm stuck at "Loading Operating System"
I suspect it may be the motherboard or CPU but I do not know how to check these really. Trying them out on my brother's PC isn't an option. Here's what I got:
Power Supply: Corsair TX850W
Motherboard:Gigabyte Ultra Durable 3 p55A-UD3
Video Card: GeFOrce GTX460
CPU: Intel COre i7 3.2GHz
RAM: Corsair XMS3 4x2GB sticks 1600MHz
