Forum Rig Dying...

[insanegammer109]

Ok so my old computer I use for music forums ect has been acting up and I'm wondering if any of you guys have an idea whats going on because I have no Idea.

For awhile now when it boots up sometimes I get a "No Keyboard Error" and an error sound from my system speaker, I reset it and it boots up fine. Others I get no signal on my monitor and a reset was fixing that. After awhile sometimes it wouldn't boot up at all and if I messed with the 20pin motherboard connector it would boot up. So 2 days ago, I could not for the life of me get it to boot up, So I took the whole thing apart and rebuilt it making sure there were no bad connections or anything, Still nothing, 20min later I hit the power button just for the hell of it and it boots up fine. Today wouldn't boot 40min later I hit the power button boots up fine after 2-3 resets...

Once it starts it will run all day fine, no problem. That is until I shut it down and try to start it the next morning. I cannot see any faulty wires on the 20pin connector.

I wasn't sure to post this here or like PC & hardware, So I posted it here.

Power supply maybe?


If you have another power supply swap it and boot up a few times and see if that fixes it.

If you have a rig with a known functioning PS you can just set them next to each other with the covers off and swap all the connectors to your forum rig and press it's power button...no need to remove the PS!

+1 power supply is the likeliest
