Discussion: Krunk's PSU has finally died...probably. posted in Archives

Gaming along when suddenly computer stalls, audio is repeating and garbage data is all over the monitor. This happened three times in about two hours. First I thought overheat, so I took out my vidcard, ram and cpu fan then vaccumed everything and put them back.

Now my computer doesn't start up. The motherboard doesn't beep or display any video; it's not passing POST (Power On Self Test) and I've been googling for the past 3 hours but no solutions have worked so far. I've tried clearing CMOS, booting with various combonations of vidcard/ram placement etc. etc. nothing works.

I HIGHLY suspect it's my power supply: it's finally died. ; -; (Not beeg sooprise, I was really pushing my luck with it anyways) It could be the motherboard though. I've taken out the battery and tommorow I'm going to take all my computer parts out and try to boot on a piece of cardboard.

If that fails I'm out of a computer until I get a new PSU/Motherboard. =/

IF YOU TL;DR please go back to the top and read it all: I'd really like some help.
