Power issue

My PC doesn't boot up properly every time if it is the first power up. The PC doesn't display the BIOS, but fans keep running, keyboard and mice lights turn on, but the monitor has an orange light indicator which tells me that there's no signal from the display. Also, my NZXT case power button...

Hi all First post, hope to be able to repay the favour. So, I bought a used/faulty Zotac GTX 1050 Ti OC where the owner stated it was working intermittently. I thought I'd have a go at trying to fix it (and in turn upgrade my standard 1050 ti), but more than a month later I'm still scratching...

Hello everyone, about a month ago my Acer Aspire 7, with model number N19C5 stopped working. It wouldn't start anymore. I suspect it stopped working due to water damage. Yesterday, I was still feeling mad about the loss of all my data so I decided to take it out the closet and give it one more...

Hi! I've been streaming Super Mario Odyssey on Twitch with my Nintendo Switch for a few months now, and the use of the Twitch Studio app made it really easy, as I wasn't able to obtain 60fps footage with OBS or Streamlabs (only 30fps for some reason). I'm using a "4K Ultra HD USB 3.0 Video...

Mobo: maximus viii hero So I recently installed a new cpu cooler in my pc and it was going fine. I plugged everything in and it booted up fine. But I tried switching some cables in the back and when I moved the pc, it went dark. I took it out again and tried unplugging some cables and switch...

Hello. I resell graphic's cards to get a bit of cash on the side. Recently I imported a dell gtx 1070 from a pc part store on ebay. When I installed the GPU nothing happened, The fan spun for a milisecond and then it just stood there in silence, no heat, no display, nothing. The monitor...

I am in the process of building a computer and for some reason I cannot even get to the BIOS screen. It seems that other components of the computer are getting power, like the RAM and chassis fans, but not the CPU or its fan. When I turn on the computer, all I get is a black screen, and for some...

So my pc stopped working some days ago, pressing power button or sorting the board pins do nothing now, I've faced this same problem last year as well, where it will work normally at the computer shop but wouldn't start at home. I did lots of digging on this issue last time and found out it was...

Before I start, My pc will boot up fine and run games with no problem. It's not running that's the issue, the issue is when I get up from my chair or if I walk past the machine it reboots on it's own. It doesn't do it when I'm just sitting down and playing games, but as soon as I get up and walk...

So, I just added a waterblock to my pre-existing loop, but ever since my display goes out after about 10-15 seconds after startup. The display cuts regardless of me booting to BIOS or to windows.... I can only assume this is a problem with my GPU, but I don't want to flush the whole system and...

Hey, I went from a 650w EVGA psu to an 850w, the pc works perfectly except for when I plug in the sandisk ssd that I have all of my games on. I have changed all of the psu cables for the new ones with the upgrade and I’ve even plugged in a SATA cable just for the SSD but no luck. PC turns on...

Hi guys, dont know if someone has run into the same problem before, but it feels like I have tested everything and can not solve the problem on my PC. So my PC works 100% when I can power it on, and then sometimes after a while it just won't power on at all. If I power off the PSU and power it...

Hello, I ordered parts to build a computer. I verified all the components works with each other before ordering via pc part picker and even found the same build on a YouTube Video. I built it with a computer tech person but both him and I have never built computers before. Here is the issue and...

Recently over the past couple of months my pc has been freezing and then blackscreening, when it blackscreens the fans are still running and the motherboard light is on, but I am unable to do anything and when I try switch it off by the power button it doesnt work, even if I hold it down, the...

My power adapter (24 pin to 6 pin) does not want to work properly with my prebuilt HP computer (Compaq 6300 I believe). With that extra 6 pin cable that comes from the adapter the PSU starts straight away without me even pressing the start button on the computer. Then if I press the start...

Hi everyone. Firstly I apologise if I've posted this in the wrong area. I'm experiencing a power issue and a friend of mine suggested that it might be an issue with my power supply. My Gaming PC is around two months old. Over the past few weeks the PC has shut itself down on a number of...

Hi All, I've been really struggling to resolve this issue and would really appreciate some help, basically, after upgrading my ram to a new 4x8 kit (from 1x8) and starting to play cyberpunk and borderlands 3, my pc started crashing where the monitor goes black, audio glitches occur (depending...

I have an MSI GE72 2QF Apache Pro, the fans went out in it so I replaced the fans today, as well as replaced the thermal paste. After installing the new fans and paste, it ran great for a little over an hour and played Final Fantasy XIV to test the new fans, and the installation was a success...

My PC shut off completely while playing a game. It only turns on now when the GPU isn't getting any power from the power supply. Tho the GPU fans are kicking on and off every few seconds. GTX 970.

Back in 2016 I built my first computer and it worked without issue until just recently. I noticed that it would randomly be off when I came back to work on it, and would not power up unless I removed the power cord for a few seconds. Sometimes the computer would shut off while working on a...

Here's my specs. Interesting details include : both of the inner fans on my 1070 have not worked for 2 years, my plastic CPU cooler fan also does not work, the heat sink is still there though. My score on Furmark ( Preset 1920x1080 ) is 5870. I have never had any heat issues. My main reason...

Hello, My brother asked me to upgrade his PC for him. He wanted me to change out the GPU and add a SSD. I did so normally, and when I went to boot it - it said no OS was found, alright, cool. So I unplugged the other drives and ran it with only the OS drive connected, it worked as expected. He's...

So I recently got a hold of a monitor that someone was getting rid of because they were having problems with it. It sometimes will power on and stay on for several hours until I manually power it off, but 99% of the time it will either not turn on, or it will turn on for a few seconds to a...

I've been having issues with seemingly random restarts, but I've been able to get consistency in them from stressing the CPU for too long, or stresssing the PSU for like 5 seconds. Everything on Google pointed to PSU issues, so I got a new one, but the problem persists. Specs: Intel i5-4690K...

Hello for the past month I have been having random reboots while on my pc. Sometimes it's a few hours before it shuts down and other times is every 5 min. I have a Thermaltake 600w smart series psu that I thought was the issue so I RMA'd it. They sent me a refurbed one and my pc ran fine all day...
