Hi,
I had this home-built computer now for like 2 years or 3. But yesterday when i pushed the turn on button, the light under the button went on for 1 second and then died, then noting worked anymore, only the light on my motherboard is on.
I have the following problem: i don't know if my motherboard is defect or my processor.
I have tried the following 2 things:
- i have connected the power supply to my motherboard, inserted my processor and the cooler for my processor. When i did so... the light under my turn on button turned on for 1 second and then went off. Nothing else happened. The cooler fan didn't spin not even for 1 round.
- then i took out the processor, so that i had only my motherboard, power supply and the processor cooler (fan) connected. Then i pushed the turn on the computer button and the light below turned on and was on like it's when the computer still worked normal + the cooler fan started spinning normal.
So my question is... Is the cpu dead or are the cpu pins on my motherboard defect (the pins on which i put/insert my cpu)?
All help is welcome, thank you!
