resetting the cmos let it boot into windows but now it’s broken itself again. it only goes into the bios no matter what key I press. I thought it might be a stuck key but unplugging the keyboard does nothing. help please

also : plugged in mainboard speaker but nothing there either

I put my pc in a new case and forgot to plug in the pump. it went into thermal shutdown, but I plugged it back in. now when I boot the cpu debug comes on for a second and then goes off. the fans spin and rgb comes on but no video. I also tested with onboard video with no luck. msi b450 carbon...

Switched it with a gt 710 and reinstalled windows not the driver is deleting itself when I run it.

Maybe try windows memory diagnostic tool, or a registry cleaner?

UPDATE: It's not the psu. I hooked up a 700W one and same result.

I have an old dell inspiron 580s. It had an ancient i3 550 inside of it and I wanted to breathe new life into it. Here are the new parts list: Mobo: Intel DH61CR CPU: i3 2130 or 2140 (can't remember) RAM 2x4gb hp branded HDD 360g Seagate PSU is known good. 250W GPU Radeon r7 240 2gb My problem...

This is REALLY useful, thank you! I don't really want to spend money on this.

Yes, this Pc supports 3.5 inch and 5.25-inch floppies. i have an assortment of both. i have a 3.5-inch usb reader/writer and a connection to the internet. I was asking where to download the ms-dos file and how to set it up on the floppy.

I got an old 386 machine and I finally got it to boot. Now I need help trying to get a boot floppy. None of the tutorials online help.I would like to get MS-DOS 4.0 on it because that's the most time accurate version.

Try reseating everything. CPU, RAM, GPU, and other cards

Try to single out the bad stick. Or is it only with dual channel?

Only if there is instability.

Nice!

UPDATE: Found out what was causing most of the issues. RAM was undervolted so I fixed that.
