Hello all,
Every once in a while I have to take my pc apart and clean all the dust out of it because it gets super hot on the inside clogged with dust. Yesterday I did my routine cleaning and put the computer back together. This time though, the Monitor says 'no signal' and the USB ports are not receiving any power at all.
The PSU is brand new and I've only had it a few months, I took the CMOS battery out, did the 1 minute power button trick, etc. The ram cards seem to be fine, re-seated the CPU and the Video card, checked the wires to make sure everything was plugged in correctly and secured and even booted computer up with bare minimal plugged in.
My build has never beeped during start up, it's always been a quiet build. The light on the motherboard is lit green, the fans and power cut on, and the MemOk button is off unless I press the button in which it will blink once every other second or so.
I'm assuming I'm going to have to replace the processor or the mobo but before I go to buy one I wanted to try and pinpoint which one needs replacing before shelling out the cash..
Update: Just to be safe, I went ahead and returned the PSU to see if maybe it wasn't giving enough juice, even though it's new it could have possibly been faulty...?
Thanks
