Hello Everybody
First of all sorry for any bad English as it's not my first language.
I'm aware that there are a lot of posts about people not being able to start their computers and guides how to fix it. I've tried a lot of fixes and nothing helped so that's why I'm writing this now.
A quick recap what happened and what I did:
I left my PC in the Energy Saving mode for about 24h, because I accidentally pressed Energy Saving mode instead of Shutdown when I wanted to SHut it down. Then I was too lazy to boot it up again and shut down properly. So after 24h in Energy Saving I turn the PC on again, all my programs are still open, and the PC runs for about 3 sec until it abruptly turns off without me pressing anything.
I tried to start the pc again by pressing the power button of the case which didn't work. So I tried to start the PC with the onboard power button on the motherboard which also didn't work.
So I thought it might be a problem with the PSU (maybe the Motherboard isn't getting enough power) so I began dissasembling my PC and after every part I took out (Soundcard, GPU, etc) I tried to turn the PC on again but without succes. So I had my pc completely stripped with only the CPU and one RAM left and connected my old PSU, whereas the PC still wouldn't turn on. So there might not be a problem with the PSU.
Now I tried to place the motherboard on a cardboard box, and turn it on to make sure there isn't any shortage with the case as I had this problem when I first assebled the PC about 2 years ago. And to my dissapointment the PC didn't power on.
Then I tried to clear CMOS by taking out the CMOS Battery and putting it back in. This didn't solve my problems either. I even replaced the CMOS Battery with a comletely new one but still my PC won't turn on.
And now I really don't know what to do anymore as I tried all the fixes I read of or knew.
Just for info in general:
- The motherboard LEDs are working (if that is important).
- The Debug LEDs light on for about 1/10 sec and show the number '00'. They only turn on once after powering on the MB after it was completely powered off. This means after plugging the MB back in to power and I press the power button the '00' will show, every following pressing of the power button won't turn the debug LEDs on again (only if I disconnect and connect the MB to power again)
My Specs:
Motherboard: MSI Z170A Gaming M7
PSU: be quiet! POWER ZONE 850W
CPU: Intel Core i7 6700K
I hope someone can help me with my problem as I really don't want to buy a new motherboard.
