Hi, during some intense gaming my rig just BSOD out of nowhere, not knowing BSOD came with an error message I just powered it down. When I tried to boot it up it wouldn't turn on, so I popped open my case and started reseating hardware. This solved the problem, and now the computer boots
However when I connected my monitor to the graphics card I was getting no signal, and when I went to power down the pc by holding the power button down on my case it would not shut off, I had to flick the off switch on my PSU to power down the machine. On top of this I have literally no spare parts laying around to start troubleshooting, as this pc was my first build.
Specs are as follows
Tuniq Miniplant 950w PSU
2x2GB G.Skill RAM
Gigabyte Mobo, I forget the exact model, onboard sound.
Visiontek Radeon HD4870
My father insists it's a power supply problem, but to me it sounds more like motherboard or video card issues. Any help? :
