[SOLVED] PLEASE HELP MY PC WONT BOOT

[toshibs2002]

I sold my graphics card few days ago it was gtx 750 my intention was to buy amd rx 570
so i did.I just need the new PSU.

Out of curiosity i turned on my pc using motherboard vga and i put rx 570 driver disc into dvd reader i foolishly installed it and my pc crashed. Now when i try to boot it up nothing shows up at screen not even bios i need help! Its just blank black screen with no video mark on it...My fans and other things turn on tho..

Sounds like the load of the new gpu killed the PSU.

 

[toshibs2002]

Im not sure do you understand,i didnt connect new gpu new psu did not arrive yet.Im connected to monitor with vga cable connected to the motherboard vga port.Pc turns on fans spin but nothing shows up on screen.Because i previously installed the driver of rx 570 without the card even connected so i need the fix for this...

 

[bignastyid]

Installing a driver is not going to cause no post. It may cause a boot issue or video issue in windows but you should still get the bios and startup screens so it likely you have other issues. What are the specs of the system.

 

[toshibs2002]

There were no issue before this happened.My specs are i5 3470 8gb of ddr3 ram.

Well that is part of the specs, you are still missing important bits like the motherboard and PSU(make and model).

 

[toshibs2002]

PSU is Enermax liberty 400W and the motherboard is p8h61-m lx3 R2.0

 

[bignastyid]

Try resetting the bios with the CLRTC jumper. Instructions are om pag1 1-20 of the motherboards manual(linked below).

I'm also assuming you are already using the igpu since you have sold the 750.

 

[toshibs2002]

I just tried that and when i turned on pc it just says "No video input" and yes im using igpu..

 

[toshibs2002]

In the manual it also says that i could try removing cmos battery and then move the jumper again,shall i try that?

There is something weird here. You cannot even install the AMD drivers without having the card installed. The installation will not let you install the drivers if it doesn't detect the card installed at the "Detecting GPU" phase of the drivers install. It will fail and close the drivers installation.

When i entered the installation disc it popped up with selection of the system i selected first option which said windows 7/windows 10 then it was doing something for a couple of minutes and computer gave blue screen with message we are restarting pc for you it ran in into problem and current problem oscurred..

The installation CD/DVD for your rx 570? Here is a recommendation. Never use the installation CD/DVD for anything. They are always outdated and a 1 click installation can install more than just the drivers you want. The best method to install any drivers is to go download the latest ones on the internet. Motherboard official website, on board sound website, AMD's website. I have no idea what you installed with that disk. You sure it wasn't the motherboard CD?

 

[toshibs2002]

Yes im 100% sure disc is in my rx 570 box..

You could install 150 programs with virus and malwares and crappy things in it and screw your OS entirely. It still wouldn't make your PC not boot like that. The only thing I can see is the BSOD you had that created a deeper problem. Not posting isn't drivers related. It's hardware / BIOS related. You can try the CMOS reset if you want. Nothing works so far for you so why not.

The BSOD was a sign of a bigger issue not the cause.

OP, how many sticks of ram are you using?

 

[toshibs2002]

im using 2 sticks 4gb each

 

[toshibs2002]

I tried cmos reset aswell but didnt have any luck either.

 

[toshibs2002]

Maybe when i get new PSU today-tomorrow and when i install it and the gpu itself the problem will go away?

 

[bignastyid]

Try just using 1 stick of ram and disconnect all drives(ssd, hdd, optical) and see if the system will post.

 

[toshibs2002]

Wow posting screen did actually appear when i removed one stick! What shall i do next?

You're right. I phrased that incorrectly

 

[bignastyid]

Shut down, remove the stick we now know works and try the other.

 

[toshibs2002]

I did so on my own,other one worked aswell so i changed slot to see if that was the problem and other one works aswell,then i put both sticks in slots reconnected sata cables powered on pc and boom posting screen showed up again i managed to reconfigure bios settings and boot to windows fully! Woah im really thankful for your help sir!

 

[toshibs2002]

But my question what was the issue since that managed to fix it?
