Having a problem with my computer. It was working fine, I was playing a game on it as I have been the past few weeks. Randomly it just froze, audio was still running, but nothing was working. I waiting but nothing changed so I manually powered off the computer. When I attempted to restart I get nothing. No bios, just a black screen. The monitor doesn't even seem to be establishing a connection with the computer.
Also there is no beep. Everything is powering on as normal but I usually get a single short beep then the bios loads. Now there is no beep at all and the computer just runs but nothing happens. My friend is suggesting my mobo might be shot, but before I go out and buy a new setup I was hoping for more opinions?
p.s. I have experienced some freak occurrences recently. I've had to reformat twice in the past two months because the computer just randomly decides not to go into Windows. (Windows is corrupted or has an error). Can't file repair, only solution was a complete reformat and clean install with updates. I did update Bios and all drivers each time. I also ran tests on the HDD to make sure it wasn't a bad HDD, it came back clean. Had two dimms of memory burn out maybe 6 months ago. That's about all I can tell you.
