BF2S Forums Computer Problem

My guess would be heat just owned your processor, or something in your computer. Specs?

yeah sounds like the PSU is dead.

I have had similar problems caused by a dead PSU. Still havent replaced it so my computer is just sitting their rusting.

i dont think it has to do with my psu since im still getting the little yellow light on my MB when i have my PSU on. and i unplug or turn it off the little light goes out

My PSU isnt dead, its so fucked it loses power all the time and finds it hard to start up, i have lights on my mobo too but it is the PSU causing these problems, due to the electricity the processor is now fucked.

Power supply most likely.

you get absolutely no power to your motherboard? no lights on your motherboard?  if you get lights, then something else is broken.  no lights then check your power connections and your power socket in the wall.  if all is copesetic then its probably your power supply.

does your motherboard POST (beep noises). take your ram out and try to boot.  if you still cant boot without the ram, then your motherboard is toast.

I get no beeps or anything with my MB, just this small yellow light by the base of it. i took our the memory and still wont start or anything

well your power supply is good to go.  from the sounds of it, your motherboard is probably dead. if you have a processor lying around somewhere, put it in and see if you can boot.  if it still doesnt, i hope your motherboard is still under warranty.  sorry mate.

eh no problem, was my first computer i built but no i dont have another cpu around, i got ahold of a guy i know that builds his own to see if i can maybe buy a new one off him.

Well this happened to me about two weeks ago. But the HDD light on the front was still on. Dont know what caused it but what i did was removed all components(CD/DVD drives, HDD, Floppy, video card, etc.) from the power supply other than the MOBO. Then remove the memory also, and try to force your board into a memory error. You should get the constant beep, indicating a memory error. Then when you put the memory back in you should be getting the beep code for bad video card, you can then replace the video card. If this happens then you know the board is still good and your problem exists with one of the other pieces of hardware.

So, one at a time start to replace each piece of hardware and restart after only one piece is added, and continue until you find the culprit.

Mine turned out to be a bad memory module, witch took several tries because I put all the memory in at once ( stupid me). So make sure you put only one module in the system for testing this way you can eliminate the possibility of it being one of your memory modules, that is if you have more than one.

Good Luck!

Well thanks for the help everyone.

Just one thing, before you try anything else just try to clear CMOS settings.
Its MB for 90% but it mustn't be dead. And check if your CPU Fan is connected properly. Before you start buying new parts try all options posted above. Oh and did you tried to disconnect PSU from power supply for a like ten seconds and then connect it again ? Good luck btw.

yeah i tired clearing the cmos, ill check the cpu again and will try that on the psu. thanks for your in put
