Build stopped working

[Tican]

Hi there,

I was using the PC earlier on, and then I tried to connect my phone via USB, the USB ports weren't working, so I clicked on Restart.

When it rebooted, the GPU fan was on high and nothing on the displays (like what usually happens when I first turn it on).

I held the power button in for 10 seconds to turn it off, and now it won't turn on at all, no power.

I have changed the Graphics Card, PSU and the memory (well took one stick out tried to turn it on etc.)

Any ideas?

I am hoping it is just the motherboard.

Thanks in advance and apologies if this is in the wrong section

Google the "psu paper clip trick"

remove the PSU, attach a case fan to a molex and see if it starts?

I have changed the PSU to one which was working in another system

Thanks

Have you got any onboard graphics you can try?

 

[Tican]

Nope

I have tried another PCI-E card (but not sure if that was working).

I have another working one around somewhere, but can't find it

All sorted, it was the motherboard.

Strange though!
