My PC : Desktop Acer Aspire T3-715 Windows 10 home 64b. 21H1
The issue :
Pressed start button, 3 seconds after power on, monitor was lit & "acer" logo appeared & everything died here.
After this, I opened the case of the PC & switched power on and off to see what was going on when power was on.
1. Power off. Nothing unusual.
2.Power on.
2a. There was no "B" sound signal.
2b. Light in front panel was on.
2c. CPU & GPU & PSU fans spinning.
2d. About 3 seconds after power on, monitor was lit & "acer" logo appeared & everything died here with a blue screen lit.
2e. All USB ports & DVD drive were dead.
2f. Power on and off button was functional normally.
The Beep.
Started by itself & could not be turned off.
1.Disconnected the power.
2.Remove RAM, only RAM.
7.The fans were spinning.
8.Still the USB ports & DVD drive were dead.
9.The start button was not functioning, had to unplug the power cable to stop the machine running.
Some say that it might be the motherboard causing the problem.
How can I test to make sure whether the cause of the issue is the motherboard, please ??
Thank you.
