Replaced a dead ASRock Q1900M with the Biostar A68N-5200. ASROCK died due to current drops on original wall plug (a large water pump shared the line). We had a brand new high end surge suppressor that PC was plugged into(can't remember name, far from office). Thermaltake TR2 430 watt PSU tests just fine on my power supply tester. WD HD tests good on my machine. So does unknown maker DVD drive, as does the Kingston DDR3 1333 memory stick.
Every time I unplugged the PC to take to the office, it comes up dead, no BIOS screen, no BIOS fail (except twice) those times went into UEFI BIOS setup, reset original settings, machine ran fine until it was shut down.
Today, at my "shop" (I'm not in the business anymore) I got it running again and I left it running but set the sleep function to 2 hrs after screen sleep (just as another test). It would not wake from sleep. Turned off PSU to simulate a power failure, waited a while, pressed start button and nothing. Now resetting CMOS does no good. any ideas anyone? BTW, at my place it is plugged in right next to my machine which is running an ASRock Q1900M that I got as a return from ASRock because one of the ones we bought through Amazon lasted beyond 30 days. Not a bad little board, serves my needs just fine.
