Hi all,hope you can help me with an issue I've been having for a while now. I want to find out if it is actually my mobo playing up or if it's something else. I'll try and give as much info as possible.
Around January I went back to uni and upon turning my PC on was met with no signal from monitor. Tried different HDMI's etc etc and nothing worked then after a bout three days I just kept turning my tower on and off (in frustration more than anything else haha) and it worked. I had to do a system reboot sort of thing (removed apps like steam and spotify but kept my photos and most docs.) However there was no sound on the PC at all. Then after a couple of days the moitor said no signal again and it was like that for about 3 months.
It started working again randomly about a week ago now and has been running ok, no stutters on start up and a fast clean run when using the PC. HOWEVER - the no sound issue is still present. I've tried front and back jacks with nothing, downloaded what I think are the new drivers - nothing - disabled and enabled the audio devices in device manager and nothing at all. If headphones are plugged in long enough i hear a faint but consistent clicking in the right earphone - i dont know if that's useful.
My question to you knowledgeable people is; Do i need a new motherboard, or is this another issue that I'll need to try and find a fix for. I really just want my PC back!
thanks in advance for your time, RAFFY.
