mantonr Posted November 21, 2004 Posted November 21, 2004 have you tried another power supply unit in the machine? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Folding_Buddha Posted November 21, 2004 Posted November 21, 2004 No but I would not think that I needed too because the power flows though everything. But should i any way? P.s. I just took the modem out bc he never uses it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthony Posted November 21, 2004 Posted November 21, 2004 check for metal touching mobo, or just take entire computer out, put mobo on phone book or something, then obvioulsy hook everything up and then boot, (out of case) it may be a grounding problem Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordofbeer Posted November 21, 2004 Posted November 21, 2004 Same thing happend to me when I fried my processor. I bought a new Proc and mobo, when I fired it up the only thing that lit up was the mobo light and the fans. I bought a new power supply and everything booted up fine. I'd say its a bad power supply.

anthony Posted November 21, 2004 Posted November 21, 2004 hmm then try to start the powersuply, connect pin 1 and 14, something like that, someone will probably correct me; the green one and any black wire, black is ground.

r_target Posted November 21, 2004 Posted November 21, 2004 Pull all the RAM out and try to start it. If you get crazy beeping noises, then it could be the video card. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nVidia_Freak Posted November 21, 2004 Posted November 21, 2004 I had that same problem with my pc once. Turned out it was the psu, and my cdrw's IDE cable. Try switching the old cables on that pc with new ones, and a new psu. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccokeman Posted November 21, 2004 Posted November 21, 2004 you could try starting the computer while holding down the insert key. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
