Q: I was just playing warcraft3 when suddenly my computer crashed and would not boot back up. Does anyone know what the problem might be? I can power but the monitor just sits there with nothing coming on screen. I thought it might be the video card but I tried the vid card on another machine and it worked. Would it be the processor or memory? Someone please help.
Re:I have a L&C 425watt power supply.
Re:What kind of PSU do you have?
I have similar problems sometimes. My PSU just barely meets my system requirements.
I've noticed pushing the button and holding it for a second works most of the time.
Re:No beeps, but the fans turn on…everything turns on. Just no post.
Re:any beeps? do the fans turn? no beeps might be dead psu. beeps can be looked up online.
Re:Try another power supply to boot up the mobo+ram+cpu+video card. If it boot up fine, then it could be the power supply that is broken.
If it don't, the video card has been confirmed to be working, so take out the ram and see if there is any beep. If no beep, try to observe if the cpu fan is blowing. If the fan is blowing, it is very likely to be the mobo that is spoilt.
If you have another CPU, or if you can verify that the existing CPU is working, try it with the mobo.
