Murray · 27 Apr 2011 at 17:06

Just been told my PSU is the wrong way the fan points up doesn't it?

So you can also read the writing on it.

Ok thanks

What are the negatives from it facing up?

Murray · 30 Apr 2011 at 14:21

Ok getting fed up with this thing now it is turning on fans all light up then goes straight back off any ideas starting to wish i have never bought this thing.

It was working all fine yesterday.

Done all this it just constantly spins up goes off and repeats.

Tried 1 stick and no stick of RAM.

Tried no GFX card.

Tried no HDD.

Tried MB on a piece of carboard.

All fans spin up but then it just turns off and gets in a vicious circle.

Could it be the PSU or MB?

I have go access to a 400w Antec if that is worth a try?

How do i do a CMOS Clear?

Murray · 30 Apr 2011 at 15:01

I will take the GTX580 out and try the PSU first then that will eliminate it.

Took battery out while i go find my PSU.

Murray · 30 Apr 2011 at 15:18

Changed the PSU cable with the spare and it seems to stay on so seems like a faulty cable.

Murray · 1 May 2011 at 10:48

This morning it had to restart it self about 3 times before it actually started....

Murray · 1 May 2011 at 10:51

Yes it is.

Murray · 1 May 2011 at 16:23

It has now done the same as yesterday I reset the CMOS again and it worked once again so is it a faulty Motherboard?

Try changing the battery, I know it sounds weird.

Will try and get one.

Murray · 1 May 2011 at 17:51

Got a new battery worked straight away lets just hope that is the end of it.

Murray · 7 May 2011 at 18:40

Another battery stopped working so luckily I got 2 in the packet and that worked again....

If it happens again, then the MOBO is suspect

I downloaded it but it says its not compatibly?

Murray · 14 May 2011 at 21:45

Managed to do it.

Is it safe to overclock with my PSU or will it go Bang?

Murray · 14 May 2011 at 21:50

ok thats good to know, bit of a waste my i5 sitting at 3.3GHz might up it to 3.7 see how that goes.
