Hello everyone,
Here is a tough one ! I tried to resolve my problem for weeks now, worked on it for like 70 hours without any solution found !
I am really desperate, I will try to describe the problem the best that I can !
I have a computer that does't stop giving me problems, basically:
- The video will turn off (no more signal to the monitor)
- Still have sound 3/4 of the time for 5-15 seconds until it shuts down
- Half the time my cpu fan will go at crazy speed (100%) when it happens
- It can happen ANYTIME !!! (gaming, iddle, browsing, watching a movie, even in BIOS, in SAFEMODE, ALWAYS)
- It can happens 2- times in a hour as it can happen only once or twice, but it does always happen.
Sometimes when trying to restart my fan would change speed each 3 seconds going to full to low to medium in a weird way and nothing was appearing on the screen, i could restart it multiples times before having something come up.
2-3 times (out of like 300 restarts) I had a message appear in the kind of "The system wasnt able to boot due to some hardware change or overclocking blablabla" with the frequency or voltages of some parts shown below the message. I never overclocked my computer I used it at normal settings.
I added a new SSD there about one week before the problem started but it worked great for a week, when going back to my HDD the problem was still there (OS wise). I have tried thousands of things to fix it with my friend who is an computer engineer, here is a topo of what I have done:
Tested the video with Furmark and 3Dmark, out of 5 tests on 3Dmark 3 of them were successful and 2 I had the blank screen problem (on 2 totally different parts of the test) so I figure this is not the problem since 60% if the time it was successful.
Tested the RAM with Memtest86+, when I tested both my 2X4gb it crashed before 5 min into the test (4 times) BUT I was able to test them separately WITHOUT having any black screen for about 6hours and 8hours I stopped the tests myself. But sadly I kept having the same problem while trying to do stuff with only 1X4gb in. (Maybee a motherboard issue with the RAMS ?)
I ran a CPU test with PRIME95, everything went perfectly good results.
My guess is my motherboard is at the origin of the problem but I don't know how to fix it or be sure of it.
Thanks alot for any help, If you need any other information or tips of anykind feel free to post it or message me at :
