computer won't turn.

as the title says. I attemted to reboot computer but it froze at a certain point so had to flick the mains switch. When attempting to turn back on, nothing apart from a red diode light comes on as normal and a C.C. message on mother board.

Has my power supply gone?

thanks laters

not getting anything on the screen? Fans? Error beeps?

Try taking RAM out and trying one stick at a time.

No nothing at all. Tried the ram thingie, still nothing. Just weird. One moment ok, except one red light and CC.

Sounds like a hardware issue yeh. Try and narrow it down by swapping parts if you have any spare.

Try manually configure your memory voltage and timings to recommended values.

Have you checked the memory using memtest86+? If you have and it works then try running just one stick of RAM at a time and try different banks too. This will eliminate any problems with RAM or the banks at the set values.

if you can't even get ibnto your BIOS, then check your PSU.
