Half of the time, my computer will start fine, no problems.



But sometimes it won't start and it will just stay on. (fan spinning + CPU Red Light on MOBO on)
No monitor display. Tried reinstalling the RAM, the video card and the cables just in case there was a loose plug in there. I also start noticing that there is a delay in my PC start up. I press the power button and nothing happens, I have to wait for 5-10 seconds before the computer boots up.

My Computer is 2yrs old now. and this started happening 3 months ago. I am sure I don't have any bent CPU pins.

Any idea what might be causing this? Thanks!

I have the same issue only that my PC won't start or boy into bios at all. No power into monitor , keyboard or mouse

Cpu red light on all the time. Still 2 yrs old and it's awkward , I believe the motherboard is faulty more then the cpu
