My pc wont boot or open bios. One day while using my computer it shutted off by itself and after a few seconds it turned on, then i got the "bios is updating screen" and i don't remember enabling automatic updated on my bios. I left the computer update for the whole night and by noon of the next day it was still on the same screen, so even though i knew resetin or turning it off could result in boot failure i still shut off my pc.
After that i tried turning it on and my motherboard leds where on but the power button wasn't working so i disconected the power supply cable and pressed the power button for a few seconds, then conected the power supply cable back and i tried turning it on afterwards. Sadly my power button didn't work so i tried shutting down the power supply and disconecting and conecting the power button cable from the motherboard and tried turning it on and it worked but i got the same bios is updating screen and left it there for another whole night.
The next morning it was still updating and just like before i turned the pc off and tried to restore the bios as instructed on my motherboard user manual, but i got no luck so i looked on some forums and ended up trying a lot of stuff like swaping my ram to other slot, trying one ram at a time, reseting RTC and removing CMOS battery.
After trial and error i got it to boot and it opened windows normaly and i left it on for a while. After ten minutes or so i reset the pc and i got a black screen with all the motherboard leds on. After that i have been spending my days disconecting and conecting the power button cable, swaping ram slots and reseting CMOS and RTC. Sometimes i get to load windows, some times it wont boot at all but my leds are on, sometimes the power button wont work, sometimes i get the bios is updating screen, sometimes i get to open bios and boot windows but the pc turns off by itself after a while.
Its frustrating, and after the same troubleshooting process i've been doing for days i am now stuck on the "ASUS" screen unable to boot or open bios. Whay should i do? I dont have spare components to replace and see if i got a hardware issue because this is my first pc.
