What the hell.. My pc is driving me nuts. You remember, I recently had a problem with cpu or something right? As It seems I had to completly remove cpu and replace the heatsink and assembly everything again.

Now everything works fine but... BUT
And that's the strangest thing - It DOESN'T boot after being turned of for a while.
In the morning it doesn't boot. Screen is black. Fans spin but no signal no nothing.
After running it for whole day and turning it off when I go to walk the dog for like 30minutes, it doesn't work.

So even 30min cooldown is enough to stop it from booting. Its not consistant tho.


The only way to turn it on is by pure trial and error. I am just pressing power button, reset and eventually switch psu... after couple of minutes it will finally boot.
BIOS then says that it failed to boot blablabla... I need to go to bios, hit save and exit and THEN it works.


Confused Confused Confused Confused Confused Confused Confused Confused Confused Confused Confused Confused Confused

my only guess is that heatsink on either nb or cpu is acting weirdly (changed both). Can something like "not booting cold" be affected by too much sink on nb ?



one more thing - It was doing completly the same thing 5 years ago when it was brand new

I had a motherboard and CPU that did the exact same thing. I sold them on ebay.

I would guess it's a fault with the motherboard?

The motherboard is dying. Trust me, had the same issues, RMAd and got my money back (2 days before the warranty was due).

I made some "progress"

The problem is still there but now I have 100% working method how to turn on my oc Laughing

So its morning, I am turning it on, fans spin, slow down (normal) and nothing. no sound, black screen.
Restart button don't help, power button works but doesn't help.
ONLY turning if psu switch or taking the power cable out helps !

So its either something with PSU or motherboard, as You all suggested.
I will open that stupid psu and check how the resistors look. Maybe one of them have thrown up Laughing I will also check all the power connection from psu to pc.

Thats probably not a good idea and usually voids most PSU warranties so even if a resistor fucked up, you wont be able to replace it.

A few things you can try:
1. Replace the CMOS battery (usually around 1-2$ from any office supply store that sells batteries)
2. Make sure nothing is shorting out the board (remove all unnecessary equipment and rebuild the rig outside of the case. Try a non conductive surface like cardboard. And plug in the bare basics (ex: 1 stick of ram,1 harddrive) with stock heatsink.
3. Check the 12V rail reading on the PSU (preferably using a multimeter) but if you dont have one, just check it in BIOS. Usually its a bit off in BIOS but if its WAY off like 9V, then its definitely the PSU's fault
