Hi all,
So I working away at the pc about a week ago and out no where it powers down with no warning, panic sets in and i check for plugs that may have worked lose or slipped out of the socket, my search is fruitless i power back up run some checks everything is gravy again... until last night powers up and get to desktop open my fav browser and black screen no power again.
After another check of leads and 3 more times of load and the same power down at desktop i boot to safe mode and my pc is running like this for say 30 mins while I try to find said issue. i reboot pc and try to open BIOS miss the f10 3-4 times (fast little scamp!).
now we are at no boot no bleeps no nothing just a power up case fans spin but not cpu and then repeat said process every 5 seconds or so.
i removed the cmos battery and managed to get it to boot to a restore default settings this rebooted and went back in to the power down power up repeat loop
since the problems started the only bleeps POST has groaned are continues fast beeps in-between a reboot this has happened once.
Your thoughts on this please i suspect the mobo is dead atm.
