Dear troubleshooters, I have just ran in to trouble with my desktop computer. Help is much appreciated hence it's my working computer where I do video editing work and manage my productions. I need this issue to be fixed asap!
I have build my own desktop and it worked like a charm, recently (2 moths ago) upgraded to 16 gb of rams and it runs for over 2,5 years without problems. But tonight it suddenly crashed after a extended run time of about 4 hours. The crash gave me a sudden black screen into an instant reboot. When the pc rebooted it passed the Motherboard screen into the loading windows screen, at the instant it tries to load windows it shuts down with a sudden black screen (no sounds).
So I tried the following things to figure out where the problem lies.
Entering and staying in the BIOS menu does work.
- Disconnecting all Hard disks except the ssd boot. (did not help)
- Disconnecting the boot drive (ssd) and connecting a different hdd and boot windows from dvd ( PC shuts down when it starts booting the windows dvd *Loading windows files* )
- Disconnecting all the Memory modules and testing them 1 by 1 in different slots (did not help)
- Disconnecting all the usb wires etc. (did not help)
- Checking all cables (did not help)
So I'm assuming since I'm capable of entering the bios without problems it shouldnt be my PSU or GPU right? My processor (i5 2500k) is running at 50 degrees in bios menu. Could be my processor or Motherboard?
What do you guys/girls think? Thanks for helping!
Best Regards,
Wander
