Hi all
have a friend and his pc won't turn on properly. switch on and it starts for a sec then powers off immediately.
i opened it tried working ram from my PC and still no luck. I did not notice any burn smell or see any burn marks
- mobo is Asus P5B deluxe WIFI AP
- hard drive is 500g WD ( it is brand new and works on other comp)
- not sure what CPU he has - think its a dual core that is couple years old and not overclocked
- ram is crucial ballistic, I tried my sticks of ram and still same problem, so mem is not the issue
- power supply is Win Power 700w - doubt it's dead since the comp wouldn't even get power - could i be wrong?
is the motherboard dead or CPU? i tried switching the jumper to reset the bios but then it doesn't post anything?
thx for help
