lost Posted August 21, 2010 Posted August 21, 2010 it kinda slid of its elevated platform and the front bottom corner fell an inch. now whenever i try to start it up, i'l just beep at startup and won't boot up. i tried a few setups: 1) just have the motherboard connected to the power supply. nothing happened. 2) motherboard+video card+ram. nothing 3) motherboard+video card+ram+HD. nothing 4) same as 3, but with the cpu this time. it starts beeping. would it be safe to assume i messed up the cpu when the front edge of the comp dropped an inch?

Miek Posted August 21, 2010 Posted August 21, 2010 Check every single connection. Maybe you misaligned the HDD? Try the HDD in another computer and see if it works. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
malmsteenisgod Posted August 21, 2010 Posted August 21, 2010 I would think he'd still be able to get to the bios even if the HD didn't work. Do you get any power lights on your motherboard? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kennie Posted August 21, 2010 Posted August 21, 2010 Completely OT but on the forum frontpage this thread is shortened to # In: i think i killed my dad... It got me worried for a while. Correct me if I'm wrong but the beep pattern should indicate what is wrong, shouldn't it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
