computer not turning on... again

[Pyrodog783]

once again my computer wont turn on after fixing it last week (some of you may remember my post) but anyway it was working for 2 days and then I shut it off and opened it up to just look inside and check how its doing. Then it wouldnt turn on again. NO! so anyway I took everything out of it except the motherboard and sprayed it and cleaned it. put everything back and once again... it didnt turn on... please help and thanks in advance...

Are there any lights turning on? Noise? Fan spinning or anything? Beeps?

 

[Pyrodog783]

yes the inside light is turning on, so power is being supplied but when i click the power button, nothing happens ... but no noise or fans or anything eles.

this might sound weird, but check/replace the cmos battery. i had the same problem with an old celeron system.

does the cmos battery look like an oversized watch battery?

canned air...

my old systems problem is when i forgot to attach my processor fan power on the board, it dont boot and I cant even go to BIOS.

 

[Pyrodog783]

come to think of it, the fan was the last part i messed with before it started working last time this happend...?

 

[chrisalviola]

its either the fan or the processor itself. i even had an old socket A processor that loose connect on its slot.

 

[Pyrodog783]

yes, the plug from my fan is very loose when conected. could that be it?

 

[chrisalviola]

well.. did it work?

 

[Pyrodog783]

I just tweaked with it but nothing... i just dont get it, i open my pc and it stops turning on... u would think somthings unpluged but thats not it

 

[chrisalviola]

time to buy a new pc then..

stop giving bad advice



Try and see if you have your power button's lead connected right

Yes, The CMOs Batt is the "oversized" Watch battery. Remove it and if possible leave for 10 minutes (may seem like a lil overkill) but just too be sure

 

[Pyrodog783]

should i take the cmos battery out when the pc is on or when off? and btw there are no connection problems
