    Question CPU light flashes, then VGA light stays on, and PC won't POST ?

    First of all, I'd like to say thanks to everyone for the support so far, but I'm at a loss for what to do. I don't know of anyone who would be willing to lend me their GPU, and I don't want to buy a graphics card unless it's really 100% unfixable and there's nothing I can do about it. (they are...

    Question CPU light flashes, then VGA light stays on, and PC won't POST ?

    You're probably right that it's the GPU, but I wonder what caused this in the first place? Is it common for these components to just stop working overnight without any real catalyst? (I mean the fans still spin, so I assumed the issue might instead lie with communications between the motherboard...

    Okay, I managed to move the GPU to the lower slot, the error persists unfortunately.

    Question CPU light flashes, then VGA light stays on, and PC won't POST ?

    My board didn't come with Wifi or Bluetooth, so I got a little PCIe chip for that. I don't know how to remove it but I'll try to figure that out, as I need to know if it would detect my GPU in another slot.

    Question CPU light flashes, then VGA light stays on, and PC won't POST ?

    Okay, I tried that and the same thing happened where the VGA light goes on and stays on. I really wish I could test if it's the PCIe slot that's the problem but I can't fit it into any other slot.

    Question CPU light flashes, then VGA light stays on, and PC won't POST ?

    Hello, I've been having this issue for about 2 weeks now, where whenever I boot my PC the CPU light on the motherboard will stay on for a few seconds, turn off, and then a few seconds later the VGA light comes on and stays on forever, never booting. I previously made a post asking to fix this...

    Question Left my PC idle for an hour while I had lunch - came back to it turned off and won't POST anymore.

    Okay, I was searching online and found this. "CPU LED flashes for a second and then the VGA light stays on." That word for word describes my issue. I probably should have mentioned earlier that was what was happening, but I thought only the VGA was relevant because that was the one that stayed...

    Question Left my PC idle for an hour while I had lunch - came back to it turned off and won't POST anymore.

    I went out and ordered the PSU you suggested. It took forever to come in the mail, but it's here now. Unfortunately, I'm still having the issue where the VGA light stays on. Is there anything that I can try that doesn't involve going out and ordering a spare part to test if a certain part is...

    Question Left my PC idle for an hour while I had lunch - came back to it turned off and won't POST anymore.

    There's currently a sale for a similar product from the same brand. Should I consider getting this one instead, or is this one worse in some way I don't fully understand? (I hear that wattage isn't everything)

    Question Left my PC idle for an hour while I had lunch - came back to it turned off and won't POST anymore.

    I just checked on a PSU tier list and it's in the F tier :oops: I got mine a long time ago when I didn't know any better, guess it has a pretty bad reputation here. Any PSU recommendations then?

    Question Left my PC idle for an hour while I had lunch - came back to it turned off and won't POST anymore.

    Hello, about a week ago my PC stopped working. I thought it was odd the display was off as I had left it running while I had lunch. When I tried to reboot it, though, it wouldn't POST. The VGA light stayed on. Ever since then I have been trying to fix it, and I've tried many things like...
