Hey guys. my desktop turned off all of a sudden one time and won't turn back on and still won't. My first thought, it was the PSU but i think im wrong.
I did the paperclip test and the fan on the PSU DID spin, but it DID NOT spin (but twitch a little) when i did the test while all the PSU connectors are connected, except the ATX connector off course. But i think thats the wrong way of doing it.
So I unplugged all the connectors and did the paperclip test again. The fan spins, then I also test for voltage while the fan was spinning. All the voltage seemed normal (yellow: 12V, red: 5V, orange, 3.3V, blue: -12V, purple: 5V, grey: 5V).
So is it my Asus mobo? it's only been 4 months since i got it (Asus P5Q SE Plus). are there any other tests i can do??
thanks.
