Hello everyone. I haven't been around for a few years and need your help with my problem. This is a pc i built for my son years ago and is now just a backup for him since he now uses a mac book for school stuff. He only has it on for a few hours every other week or so for his ipod songs.
His pc is almost identical to the one in my sig except for slightly slower vid card.
Anyway, last night he turned it on and told me it was broken. The mobo lights are on and the fans are spinning. I tried resetting the CMOS a few times but that did not help. I tried it with only 1 stick of RAM, that didnt work either. I also tried removing the battery for a few minutes, no dice there too.
I also tried another PSU which also did not help.
Any other ideas or is it finally time to lay it to rest?
Thanks in advance for all your ideas.
