Here is what is happening exactly with my PC and any replies would be good.
1/ Press button on the front
2/ light comes on / no other sounds (Beeps)
3/ monitor has a blank screen (on standby)
4/ Try to switched screen on from button on the front clicks straight to standby.
5/ Monitor works because when i remove the connection from the back of the computer its states no signal / also tried a monitor i know works and it does the same thing, so i assume it is not the monitor.
6/ The fans are running and the hard drive is spinning.
7/ Tried running the computer with everything disconnected all drives mouse, printer, floppy, dvd drive, cd drive.
8/ turned on with only the memory in place after reseating it and all the graphics cards and the memory several times.
9/ still no response.
10/ Changed the motherboard battery and left a bit of time before putting new one in.
11/ no change
12/ Advised it was the graphics card so bought a new one.
13/ hey presto it works, well for 3 days anyway then .......
14/ no response, as per 1-7
15/ didnt work again or since
Is there anything else i can try? or is that it.
16/ bought a new computer turned it on and it appeared to have the same problem as the above 1-6
17/ I have since taken the new one back and got my money back they said it was the motherboard.
If this problem sounds familiar im just trying to come from a different angle to see it it rings a bell with anyone and i can get my old computer running again?? I may not have been explaining it very well.
Cheers
