Hey guys, I am desperate for some idea of what is going on, I have built my machines since the 90s, I know most of it, but I am not an expert by any means, just someone that likes to build my own.
My issue:
My motherboard breaks after 6 months, 3 times. I have replaced the mb twice already, I am now on my 3rd time it stops working.
The issue is after a while it wont boot anymore and it goes thru multiple fases of erro codes. Most commonly starts at code 79, it wont boot at all, then I swap to the other bios and it works for a while and starts to fail again. The code changes from 79 to 04, sometimes stuck at 68, some times 33, I've seen 55 and I've seen it being stuck at one code but quickly swap to a number I can see, because its very fast. Lastly after a couple weeks it wont boot at all, no matter what I do. Reset the bios, remove the battery, replaced all the hardware I can to see it anything else fails. the only piece of hardware I am not able to swap is the memory for not having more of it.
Its driving me insane, I have replace the MB twice, CPU once and the Power supply I got a new one right after the 1st one broke. It works fine for 6 months like I said, but then it breaks. I'm starting to think something else is causing a short circuit or something. Could the Memory be doing this? could the case be doing this? Power strip?
any ideas PLEASE!
