I am currently having the most interesting dilemma with my custom-built PC: it will only boot if the tower is on its side, and the casing is opened. As soon as I try to put the casing cover on or turn the tower right-side up, the display will become distorted then go black. Once I turn my PC off and back on, it will not boot until I put the tower on its side and open the casing. What could be causing this problem?
I built this PC 2 years ago, and it has not given me any trouble until now. This started happening yesterday when my display suddenly went black as I was using my computer. When I turned it off and back on, it would not boot. It would only turn on the fans and LEDs.
Does anyone have any idea what could possibly be going on??
