I have a problem with my pc. upon turning it on the led lights blink up for power ,but nothing happens after that..also nothing appears on screen.

And I think it is not even reading the harddrive? what could be the problem? please help

 

Just some clarifications if you will:

1. When you power up the PC, do you hear any beeps?

2. When you say nothing appears on the screen, do you mean nothing totally appears or the white text appears for a moment then disappears?

3. In case of a no-video scenario (#2), and the absence of beep errors (#1) does the CPU power LED (indicator) still stay lit up or the system completely powers down?

That's good, it helps with the isolation. More questions:

1. The CPU led stays lit up, how about the monitor LED?

--in case the monitor LED is on, try another video card or if your motherboard has an integrated video card (the current ones usually have anyways), remove the expansion video card for the system to default to the built-in card (this is assuming you are running with an expansion video card)

--in case the monitor LED is off, try another monitor

 

let me know the results :headsetsmiley:

mukhang motherboard na yan ser, nung tinanggal mo yung vidcard, nag beep ba yung CPU nung i-on mo?

nope wala. di kaya battery lang ng motherboard?

[geekyjuan]

pag mahina battery ng motherboard narereset lang yun settings ng board... may screen ka dapat makikita.... pag di nakuha sa kabit tangal, possible na board na problema.... either may nasunog na resistor or blotted yun capacitor

it bought it with my pc package 2006 pa bro...is there any other option? oh well...

[jcsantos]

is it running on batteries or is it plugged in ???

 

if it is plugged in check if there's a light on the adaptor, malalaman mo kung gumagana yung adapter mo kung sinaksak mo makikita mo mag chacharged yung battery mo, pag inde nag charge it means you need to replace it ...

I just upgraded my memory card from 2x 256mb DDR1 266 PC2100 (Samsung) to 2x 512mb (Kingston) same specs, bakit po kaya ang bilis nya uminit? Naglaro lang ako ng CNC Generals saglit eh, napaka init na nya. Di tulad nung naka 2x 256mb lang ako. :headsetsmiley:

mas mataas specs ng pc mo dapat mas maganda ventilation mo :goatee:

Help! Papanu pag nalubog sa baha ang cpu? may pagasa pa ba?

[alloy v7.6]

Dude, gaano ka lubog? Nalubog ba nung bagyo?

 

Kung kalulubog lang, baka mahabol pa ng contact cleaner para ma wash out ang tubig. Pero kung natuyo na sa tubig baha lalo na kung may putik, tapos natuyo na sa tagal, dun magkaka problema. Hehehe. A;though kahit maagapan ng linis pagkalubog, malamang may bumigay pa ring mga piyesa. Computers can se so sensitive.
