Let's start with my rigs specs.
All parts are around 3years old from when I first built the PC besides the GPU which I got in November.
Motherboard: Msi Z87-G45 Gaming
Cpu: Intel Core I5-4670
Gpu: Msi GTX 1070 8GBs
Ram: 16GBs (4×4GBs) Corsair DDR3 1600MHz
Power: Corsair Builders Series CX 600 Watt
Storage is not important but
SSD: 120GBs
HD: 1TB
Cooling is air cooled.
12fans total with 2fans on CPU Cooler Master heat sink and 2fans on GPU card.
The remaining 8fans are controlled by manual switches. I don't over clock hardware.
The PC is idle around 30degrees C and never goes over 60degrees C.
Now, I tell you my story. Just two days ago the PC ran just fine. I shut it down and went to bed.
The next day after work I came home and turned on the PC and my T.V. and was confused because the
T.V. wasn't picking up any input (I use HDMI connections). The PC seems to turn on as fans start rotating and the hardware
lights on the motherboard and GPU light up. I checked to see if the HDMI cable was fully in the
GPU and restarted the PC, a prompt came up on the screen saying something like "your system CPU or memory has been modified,
please change the settings" and gave me an option to boot with normal settings or go into bios. I went into the bios and looked at the hardware I had installed, it said I didn't have any RAM installed! However, it clearly was when I looked in the case.. so, I took the Ram out and put it back in the slots making sure they were secure, the rebooted.. Nothing, I have been unable to make anything display again. I have tried taking everything out of the PC (ram, Gpu, soorage) and connecting the HDMI directly to the motherboard and nothing changes. I have tried removing the motherboard battery to restart BIOS setting and zipp..
This is what happens:
I press the power button and the computer receives power but displays nothing for about 10-20secs, then it seems to restart and continues the same symptoms only doesn't restart again.
What do you think is my problem or what happened? Can you point me in the right direction to help?
Thank you for your time!
