Grandson's PC overnight just stopped booting. (MSI 78m-e45...Don't know cpu...1050i gpu...8 gb ddr3 ram) Go to bios...cursor freezes. Restart...go to bios...cursor moves but shadow cursor doesn't...details on bios muddled and fuzzy and messed up...boot list includes "incorrect bin file" for every one. I pull cmos battery for 10 minutes...reboot. Same problem.
This PC also has a Kingston 500gb ssd. When it wouldn't boot I used my Windows Media creation tool and unplugged the ssd while booting from the usb. Plugged ssd back in after booted and loaded files (allegedly) onto ssd after clearing partitions. Media Tool loaded everything, restarted twice and got to "We're Getting Everything Ready For You This might take several minutes."
After a few seconds screen went black.
I assume motherboard is wasted, for some weird reason.
Suggestions anyone?
 
The graphics card would prevent the PC from booting properly?
Do you have any other graphics card to try? I would check everything before assuming it is the motherboard. Motherboards are usually a diagnosis of exclusion, along with the CPU.
It can. Does the computer have integrated graphics from the CPU? You can try that as well.
I disconnected the 1050TI graphics card, connected monitor directly to PC motherboard. Turn on PC and no image at all.
