So I did a windows update.. During the update my screen went black, then white, then my pc turned off. I assumed it was just restarting like normal, then my monitor went into sleep mode, and now whenever I attempt to turn my pc on, the monitor stays in sleep mode.

restive tinsel
#

I suffered same on my teach laptop

#

I guess try opening safe mode with networking.

tulip drum
#

press the reset button a lot of times

#

or shutdown the system, shut off your PSU, unplug the cable

#

wait for a few minutes

#

CPUs are incredibly complex and there might be old stuff remaining in it

#

it might think that it's sleeping but it's not

whole bane
#

Still isn't working

restive tinsel
#

Well do one thing, can you reinstall windows?

#

try opening safemode w/ networking

whole bane
#

Well now I would try that, but I can't exactly open safemode when the pc doesnt post

restive tinsel
#

hold F8 while starting

whole bane
#

My keyboard does not turn on

#

because my pc doesnt post

#

actually

#

i waited and it did turn on

#

monitor still in sleep though

vagrant moat
#

Tried replugging the display cable??

#

Might give it the kick to go out of sleep

whole bane
#

yeah, also tried with a different monitor

#

same issue

restive tinsel
#

Well drivers installed correctly?

whole bane
restive tinsel
#

well is you GPU insttalled correctly?

#

try reseating

whole bane
vagrant moat
#

Maybe try if your integrated graphics gives display if you got those

vagrant moat
#

Okay

restive tinsel
#

well you need new windows install or someting

vagrant moat
#

I would go and give your ram a reseat next then
(Might sound unrelated but it can work)

restive tinsel

#

Tried resetting bios (just removing bios battery while unplugged)

whole bane
#

Tried that too

vagrant moat
#

Oof you tried a lot already

whole bane
#

yeah

restive tinsel
#

I think this guys knows his stuff so reinstall windows

vagrant moat
#

He isn’t getting display right??

whole bane
#

Hard to install windows without a video output

restive tinsel
#

huh? is you thing fried?

vagrant moat
whole bane
#

Yep

restive tinsel
#

bios opens?

whole bane
vagrant moat
#

Tried booting without the ssd?

restive tinsel
#

wbios not opens how ssd will work

whole bane
restive tinsel
#

I guess your CPU needs reseat or mobo is fried

vagrant moat
restive tinsel
vagrant moat
#

🤣

whole bane
restive tinsel
#

oky you getting no disply or bios hoe will you even get thing goin

vagrant moat
whole bane
#

I'll try that now

restive tinsel
#

well i guess he doesnot have thermal paste

#

use toothpaste

#

engineering in nutshell

vagrant moat
#

Nah keep the paste on it if you don’t have thermal paste on hand

#

It’s better then toothpaste

restive tinsel
#

Tht is why over application is better, cn stand 1-2 reseats

whole bane
vagrant moat
#

Ehh

#

Yeah pretty much tried everything then

restive tinsel
#

well ther is one thing

#

but i need to wsh my hands

vagrant moat
#

??

restive tinsel
#

okay back with clean hands

#

so you remove the bootable drive and use windwos bootable drive. and store the drivers on it. try installting drivers just from bootable

vagrant moat
#

No display

restive tinsel
#

probably install GPU drivers and use........... if your pc goes to sleep did you tried just pressing the button?

vagrant moat
#

I swear if he presses that button and it works I’ll cry

whole bane
restive tinsel
#

are you using some veryold crappy GPU that does not supoort

#

even the CPU some pentium duo?

whole bane
#

well theyre old components but not like that

#

a10

restive tinsel
whole bane
#

gpu is also relatively old but ive never had issues with it previously

#

radeon hd 7770 if i remember correctly

restive tinsel
#

and what monitors u used?

#

a10 have integrated grpahics?

whole bane

restive tinsel
#

well last try, I need to concentrate my PC skills

#

does no drive n just windows bootable flash drive works?

whole bane
#

can try it with a flash 1 sec

restive tinsel
#

sure. there should also be place where you can just let it do it's cycles and leave it, probably boot cycling

whole bane
#

flash didnt work either

restive tinsel
#

last advice. yes I will leave then, Just let it do it's job and leave for hours.

#

it will take some tiime, but may work.

whole bane
#

I left it all of last night

restive tinsel
#

well now I have diagnosed the problem, fired mobo

#

that update must be bios update and got fried

vagrant moat
#

that seems like a good explanation unfortunatly

restive tinsel
#

can i say some profanity?

whole bane
#

But if it was the mobo wouldnt the fans not spin?

vagrant moat
#

welcome to computer weirdness part of a mobo can work while other parts dont

restive tinsel
#

did you used unsupported/dropped-supported mobo on a10?

#

win 11 cpu choices changes even now.

whole bane
restive tinsel
#

i mean form sense of win 11

#

is some wire in PSU broke>

whole bane
#

not getting a video output before being in the os*

restive tinsel
#

it would, it would have fried the TPM which is with bios and chipset

#

so if TPM is damaged so is bios and whole mobo

#

oem do have TPM always

whole bane
#

hmm, i might just send it to someone that might be able to figure out whats wrong

#

seems like the best option here

vagrant moat
#

a second opinion is always good
think they will come to same conclusion though

#

or in this case fourth opinion but always good anyway

restive tinsel
#

XD how many opinions he will take, it takes money

#

for everytime.

#

well what did you even do that it disables the whole graphics both internal and external graphics are shotdown

whole bane
restive tinsel
#

on win 11 22H1?

whole bane
#

normally it automatically updates, i dont manually update often

vagrant moat
#

i would go and try score a mobo somewhere to see if that fixes it

#

if the pc is still fast enough for you that its worth it ofc

restive tinsel
#

(resolved?)

#

in modern systems your TPM is inside of your CPU, that's even harder to damage

#

even then you don't need a TPM to start the system or boot windows

restive tinsel
#

well he already reseat everything except CPU

#

what else can it be then? even onboard graphics donot work.

whole bane
#

Okay ig the motherboard is dead, resolved ig
