Fireonice Posted May 10, 2005 Posted May 10, 2005 a virus can not do that... nor any other program that was created to distroy your computer files and such. There is another problem if its not starting or that standby light you are talking of but i have no clue what it could be. From my experiences with bad luck and my computer it could be one of the follow but not sure. 1. psu going bad (this happined with my x connect...) 2. metal might be touching something but it dont sound like it can only think of thous two things that could cause a problem like that. It rly sounds like something is shorting something out or soemthing like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sovek Posted May 10, 2005 Posted May 10, 2005 my first guess is your PSU, sounds like it shorted out. I would have no idea. I would test it with another PSU, if that doesnt work, have all your parts tested in another rig, if they all post, then its prolly the mobo.
