So lately I have been having troubles with my computer, it is a custom built gaming pc. It has been crashing and giving me blue screen errors. A few in particular. I have been getting blue screens randomly since I built it, and then they seemed to go away. Just recently my computer started acting really strange. I replaced the memory and that seemed to solve some of my issues. It began doing other things though, such as it crashing and restarting while trying to boot, monitor going to sleep while starting up, and various others. I figured it was a software issue. I formatted my hard drive, and re-installed windows 7. Everything seemed to be fine, and then I started getting blue screens again. Judging by some of the problems I have had in the past, I think it is the power supply. I also re-seated everything, including cpu, as well as removed the CMOS battery and cleared the jumpers, to no avail. Now I can't seem to get it to boot at all. It begins to start up, but gets stuck at a black screen with a flashing underscore. I can not get past this screen to get into bios, or even boot from a disk, or format again for that matter. I have a secondary hard drive that doesn't have windows on it, just all of my personal files such as pictures, music, videos, school work, etc. Should I remove my primary and try installing windows on the secondary, by using the upgrade option at the install screen, so it would keep all of my files? I need advice on what to do. I was going to sell it a week ago, because the problems seemed to be gone. So if some one could help me get this thing running well so that I can just sell it, and get it out of here, that would be AWESOME. Also, could the psu have damaged some of my components? Thank you in advance, and please READ EVERYTHING FIRST.
