Hey guys
I have something for you to help me with
These last days I have been monitoring the CPU temperature of my parents computer running to high for my liking. Temperatures of @ 65 degrees Celsius.
(note: it actually has been running with that temperature for more than a year now, but the pc does not work 24/7.....more an average of 3 hours per day max)
I found the problem: the cooler wasn't placed perfect and case fans weren't working properly, either way...
After I bought some new cooling paste and fix the problem, I went on to start the pc again and here I came with a new problem.
The pc does not want to boot. I don't get any input or signal on my monitor, no beeping sound and also keyboard and mouse does not get any signal at all when the pc starts. And last all the fans works at a really low speed.
For me it all points to a dying or a death mobo, because yesterday when I boot up the pc, the booting procedure got stock in bios (never reaching the windows booting logo). After a restart or 2 then it booted completely.
But just to be sure I want your guys opinion on this problem before I head off tomorrow buying a new mobo.
Things I already did (and came with the same results)
* check power cables
* boot with no usb cables plugged
* boot with no HD plugged
* boot with no dvd burner plugged
* boot even with no mouse & keyboard
* 15 sec CMOS clear
System Spec
Asus P5W DH Deluxe
Core 2 Duo E6600
Asus EN7900GS
WD2500YS 250GB SATA
Corsair 2 * 1GB PC6400
Cooler Mater iGreen power 500W
(oh maybe a good thing to point out...don't know if it might be something to do with the problem I have
where I am right now is at Aruba. We have a weather here that is really bad for electronics. As in there is a high concentration of (hopefully this is the right word) saltpeter in the air, where corrosion happens fast)
