Hi, i got a system that was abput to be thrown away, i was told it had problems, but it's a really well specced system for free. So, first off, i'll give you my specs then explain the problem:
AMD Phenom x2 555 @3.2GHz
Asrock 770 Extreme 3.
4GB DDR3 ram (Known to be working)
450W aopen power supply, this is a heavy duty power supply and weighs a ton!
My problem:
I turn on the computer, hard drive spins up, lights come on, but after around 5 seconds, the computer will turn off and i have to open the case, take off the 24pin connector and put it back on to get any response from the system.
I can get it on, but only rarely, i have a fiddle around with the jumpers on the motherboard, sometimes it starts, most of the time it will not, but when it's on, it's rock stable and has no issues, you just can't turn it off.
Any Ideas?
Cheers!
