Hello,
My PC is about 5 years old, and was previously working fine. I haven't used it for a few months as it was being transported from Turkey to the UK.
Now, when I turn it on, my monitor goes into power saving mode straight away. My keyboard and mouse (USB driven) don't light up. I noticed the fans on my GPU also stop spinning after maybe 20-30 seconds. There are no beeps and, as nothing seems to work, I can't enter UEFI/ BIOS.
I've tried two different monitors with the same result, so I guess my monitor isn't the issue.
I thought something might have been unseated in transit, so I've reseated the GPU, SSDs/HDDs and RAM (trying one stick at a time). I've tried taking out and replacing the CMOS battery.
I wondered whether the power cables could be an issue, moving from European plugs to UK plugs. I only have one UK power cable at the moment, but whether it is used for the PC or the monitor doesn't seem to make a difference.
I don't have a spare PSU to try, and don't really feel confident breadboarding the system...
Any advice would be really appreciated!
Thanks!
Raeh
