Hello, there's a problem with my desktop pc, sometimes when I accidentally hit that case a small hit, it turns off, and then when I try to turn it on again it keeps trying to turn on, failing and restasrting, without anything booting.
And this only gets solved if I uninstall and reinstall the cpu again.
Is there any cases u know like this, and why is it happening?

This problem happened a couple of times, and yes I hit it accidentally when I was moving my leg
It's not that strong of a hit

It's stuck in a loop I hear the fan starting to work then it fails and restart, nothing on the screen cus it didn't boot

That's so strange
But yeah I mean if it works after you take out the cpu and put it back in
Wait
Is it still having this issue now
Or did taking out the cpu and putting it back in solve it?

It did solve it
That's the very strange thing
Anything else like doing that for the RAM, FAN, BIOS, nothing fix it
But if I hit the pc accidentally again, sometimes the same problem happens and it's so annoying

Just make sure you don't knock it, I guess it disrupted the cpu
Maybe possibly moved it by eversolittle which may have caused the issue

Well that works, but it's so weird and I wanna see if it happened to anyone else

I don't hear of it to be honest

Oh okay
pearl robin
It's a strange one
frigid rover
Yeah, like really..

But just make sure your cpu is tightly in its socket
Make sure that it all locks properly and that the cooler is tightened down correctly, like it's strange
frigid rover
It is, I'm making sure, maybe the socket got old and that's causing that problem?

Everything is locked properly

What motherboard do you have
frigid rover
What motherboard do you have
It's old, MSI H81M-P33
It's old ik, it works for me though
pearl robin
It's old ik, it works for me though
I mean I don't think the motherboard would have degraded that much tho
Unless there is corrosion or rust or something
But it is a possibility that it's old
However hard to tell
frigid rover
Unless there is corrosion or rust or something
It looks perfectly fine, kept ina good condition
pearl robin
Then it should be fine
