hey

Last night i was warned of thunder by my mum, so i thought i turned my pc off, turns out it was in sleep mode. I also removed the plug. Now i've found this out my pc is in a continuous boot loop, i've left it for 10 mins and it still wont work. What can i do :/?
 
reset my cmos, still doesn't work. And you hear everything whir up then it dies and just keeps doing that, with no display.
 
ugh, getting restless, anyone know how to cure it, cmos reset no working, can't press f8 as i see no display and it doesnt work
 
just as it should post it dies. I dont actually think my mobo ever did beep post, it displayed it. And how come this has happened, its never happened before, turning power off during sleep hasnt killed my pc before. And my dad put a power kill switch on my plugs so it shouldnt be the storm
 
I still can't find any reason why it wont work, I can't get it to work still, I've reset CMOS, I can't press F8. As it doesn't even get to the POST before it dies and restarts and goes in a loop, I get no display from my PC too. This is getting a pain in the ass, as I do not know if it is my motherboard that is broken, which it this was to be the case I don't know if I could RMA it as it was a b-grade one.

How can I clear it so my PC doesn't think it's in sleep mode?
 
When did you buy it? Did you buy it seperately? Is it covered by warranty?
Have you asked OcUK?

Have you considered these? I'm not sure they would give you the specific problem that you have right now, but if you have spare parts then I suggest you try them.

Maybe you have dead RAM?
PSU fault?
Maybe the heatsink of the CPU has come off and the PC is shutting down prematurely?

Anywho good luck.

I am unsure when I bought it and I bought it with some RAM and a new Heatsink. And I've just asked OcUK if it is in warranty as I don't know.

And I thought there might be a problem with the RAM and my motherboard and possibly it is the RAM causing the issue, but now I've sent a question about if I could RMA my mobo should I send a question in linking to about the RMA and hope they read both.

And the PSU is fine, it was new like a month ago. and the heatsink is very securly in place.
 
Ok, I've sent in about the mobo RMA. And well, I would, just I'm 15 and I currently have no money whatsoever so thats kinda a pain for a start. Hopefully they accept my request, I might check the RAM in the PC I'm on now just to check if it is the RAM causing it.
 
This was during the night, so i probs would be asleep during thunder, also my mum told me to xD and should i try my ram in another pc just to be sure its the mobo?
