Someone pls help 😭

half zealot Jul 4, 2024, 8:11 AM

#

ok

#

replace your fans

#

or your gpu

#

and see if that works

latent oyster Jul 4, 2024, 8:20 AM

#

ruby delta

Check the ram, Try stick by stick, Try a different GPu. It can be ALLOT of things

#

Possibly a cmos reset can fix it

ruby delta Jul 4, 2024, 8:20 AM

#

I dont have an extra gpu lying around sadly

latent oyster Jul 4, 2024, 8:20 AM

#

Try a cmos reset

#

What motherboard is that

ruby delta Jul 4, 2024, 8:21 AM

#

How do i take that battery out

latent oyster Jul 4, 2024, 8:21 AM

#

You don't have to

#

You can shorten 2 pins or you can click a button on the motherboard and it'll reset the cmos

ruby delta Jul 4, 2024, 8:21 AM

#

latent oyster What motherboard is that

Asus prime something-670e wifi pro thing idk im too tired to remember

latent oyster Jul 4, 2024, 8:21 AM

#

Ok

ruby delta Jul 4, 2024, 8:21 AM

#

latent oyster You can shorten 2 pins or you can click a button on the motherboard and it'll re...

Huh?

latent oyster Jul 4, 2024, 8:21 AM

#

so

#

#

At the bottom should be a red little button

#

Click that and the cmos should be resseted

ruby delta Jul 4, 2024, 8:22 AM

#

The white one?

latent oyster Jul 4, 2024, 8:22 AM

#

Or any other colour button

ruby delta Jul 4, 2024, 8:22 AM

#

latent oyster

Wrong board

latent oyster Jul 4, 2024, 8:22 AM

#

Yeah those

latent oyster Jul 4, 2024, 8:22 AM

#

ruby delta Wrong board

I was thinking already

#

The white little button

ruby delta Jul 4, 2024, 8:23 AM

#

The pc needs to be plugged in right?

latent oyster Jul 4, 2024, 8:23 AM

#

Yup

#

I think so

ruby delta Jul 4, 2024, 8:23 AM

#

Ok

#

I pressed it

latent oyster Jul 4, 2024, 8:23 AM

#

If that doesn't work. you should look at the motherboard code lights or beeping

#

If that doesn't show anything the motherboard itself could also be faulty

ruby delta Jul 4, 2024, 8:24 AM

#

Idk why it would

#

Its been working fine all day

latent oyster Jul 4, 2024, 8:24 AM

#

Anything can suddenly break odly enough, happend to me some times

#

Does the motherboard have diagnostic lights?

ruby delta Jul 4, 2024, 8:26 AM

#

Yeah

#

It keeps shpwing ram

#

But like 30 minutes ago it was cpu

latent oyster Jul 4, 2024, 8:26 AM

#

Yeah, so plug ALL of the stick out

ruby delta Jul 4, 2024, 8:26 AM

#

Oh and it was doing boot as well

#

And now i cant get my gpu back in

latent oyster Jul 4, 2024, 8:27 AM

#

ruby delta And now i cant get my gpu back in

Try to figure that out carefully so you don't break anything

#

After that get rid of all the ram sticks in there and then try them 1 for 1

ruby delta Jul 4, 2024, 8:28 AM

#

latent oyster After that get rid of all the ram sticks in there and then try them 1 for 1

Ive done that

#

Like 3 times

#

FINALLY

latent oyster Jul 4, 2024, 8:30 AM

#

Was it the ram?

ruby delta Jul 4, 2024, 8:30 AM

#

Idk

#

I didnt do anything it just booted

latent oyster Jul 4, 2024, 8:31 AM

#

Oh alright

#

Could've been the cmos

ruby delta Jul 4, 2024, 8:31 AM

#

Ohh

#

Yeah

latent oyster Jul 4, 2024, 8:31 AM

#

Did you try overclocking or som sort?

ruby delta Jul 4, 2024, 8:31 AM

#

Cuz its like asking me for my pin to sign in and stuff

ruby delta Jul 4, 2024, 8:31 AM

#

latent oyster Did you try overclocking or som sort?

No

latent oyster Jul 4, 2024, 8:31 AM

#

Oh ok because mostly that will happen when you try overclocking beyond it's capabilties

ruby delta Jul 4, 2024, 8:32 AM

#

I did turn on expo for the ram that might have done it

latent oyster Jul 4, 2024, 8:32 AM

#

That could've been it

ruby delta Jul 4, 2024, 8:32 AM

#

Cuz i did notice problems after i did that

latent oyster Jul 4, 2024, 8:33 AM

#

Well good that I could help 👍

ruby delta Jul 4, 2024, 8:33 AM

#

Ok so how to i turn off my pc not using the power button

latent oyster Jul 4, 2024, 8:33 AM
