Computer was working fine till today. I turn it on it gets stuck on the first screen, the mobo screen. Pressing any of the available buttons to enter setup or anything like that provides no result. I leave it like that for 20+ minutes, nothing happened.
I open it up, check for loose cables, gently press down on the RAM. I try it again, this time I don't even get any image. I live in a moist place and I've done this kind of thing in the past, never had problems with static and I touched metallic objects before touching the PC, so I suppose I was discharged, if this kind of thing works like that.
Anyway, so no image. The power supply is running. The keyboard doesn't turn on and the mouse keeps blinking. I tried connecting the monitor directly to the mobo through a VGA cable, no difference.
I bought and put together (almost) every part of this PC this year, it's been working fine, no hitches, until this happened for apparently no reason.
My specs:
CPU AMD A8 3870k
GPU Radeon HD 7750
Mobo ASRock A55M-HVS
RAM 1x 4gb DDR3 Kingston
Power Supply Corsair CX500
HD Western Digital 500gb Caviar Blue
& some Samsung HD I have since 2010 and that in the past had this problem where it couldn't be recognized by the PC. Windows is installed on the Western Digital HD, the good one, nothing essential is on this Samsung drive.
Any ideas on what to do?
