I am currently reaching the end of my patience rope with my wife's computer.
It was running good for a while ( 3 years ) with no problem. One day I noticed her Front Fan went out, so I ordered up a new one ( same model ) plugged the machine up, and it started crashing. The crashing was not consistent, sometimes it would stay on for a few seconds, sometimes a few minutes, once a little over an hour. My initial thought was the Power Supply may be faulty. Plugged up my PSU tester and it appeared to be borked, so I replaced it.
New PSU came in, plugged it up and the problem continued. After speaking with my wife ( knowing she wanted to upgrade her computer ), we decided to purchase her a new MOBO and Processor as an upgrade and rule out those being an issue. So I got them in, plugged it all up and the crashing continued to occur.
At this point I was really starting to get frustrated. I ran a Memtest on the system using my UBCD and it ran in the Memtest86 screen for over 6 hours with no crash and the test passed. Happy to see this, I let the machine reboot and got into windows, seconds later it crashed. I happen to have a few extra hard drives, so I put in a new HDD and reformated it with Windows 10, got through the entire install, booted and crashed again.
I'm honestly out of Ideas. I am showing no signs of over heating but cannot seem to boot. I've replaced everything in the computer except the video card and the memory ( video card has been removed during the testing phase to rule it out as the problem )Any ideas/suggestion before I rip my hair out?
