Hi all,
Hopefully someone can help with a issue I've got.
Firstly, computer specs:
Motherboard - ASUS A8R-MVP
Processor - AMD 3800+ Dual core
RAM - 2gb (unsure of brand)
GFX - ATI X800 256mb
HDD's - WD Raptor 32gb / Seagate 250gb
Sound card - Xfi XtremeGamer
Secondly, the issue.
The last time the PC was used was on Saturday just gone, everything was working fine with no problems. Come Sunday morning, it won't respond at all. There was nothing out of the ordinary during shutdown, nor during it's last time of use (no locks, no freezes, wasn't sluggish etc). All that happens now is the tower powers up with all fans working fully (i.e. cooling fans, CPU fan, GFX card fan etc), but there is no boot or post from the motherboard. Nothing else happens after this, it's just a constant feed of power.
I've tried the following:
Resetting CMOS.
Removing the RAM and trying each stick in each slot.
Removing GFX.
Removing HDD's.
Removing processor.
Trying to boot 'outside the box'.
Give each component a good clean, along with the case.
Each resulted in the same thing as before, no boot with no bios beeps etc.
Anyone got any ideas? Or is it time to get the wallet out?
Cheers,
Steve.
