#43 My Pc has completely shit itself in Hardware

#41 & 42:

Helpful posts, thanks. Already looking at a replacement motherboard, I'll update this thread as things develop/conclude.

Thanks so much to every one else that posted in the thread.

^^ Yes I tested both, but what I'm assuming is is that if the system crashed while the second one wasn't in, then it couldn't be the other one right?

rock-KissakalaA PSU would probably rather fry any other components if it was malfunctioning like that.
GPU also wouldn't have such a wide range of dying symptoms, as most of them would only cause the graphics to be more or less weird, or you wouldn't get visual input at all.
RAM, welp, I also don't think it could have such massive effects on everything you do, but it's a possibility.
I'm fairly sure the problem lies within the motherboard; either the blackout damaging the MoBo, or the SSD messing up the drivers bad (which would be rather weird), or both.

As for confirming the suspicions about a dead MoBo, I don't really know anything else than somehow getting your hands onto a MoBo that supports the CPU you're using, and trying with that.

unstable 12/5v rail doesn't mean it would fry something, it just means unstable, sometimes the psu supplies more stable current with a stable voltage, sometimes it doesn't but that doesn't always fry things, that just make things work bad, and this MIGHT be the case.

i agree on probably not being the video card.

the malfunction of a ram module could cause blue screens, freezes and pc not starting at all

mobo malfunction could cause it, but it could give every kind of problems, literally everything, it's probably the hardest thing to detect, unless you try another mobo ofc.

Like I said in an earlier post though, I did a memtest with one stick of RAM and after four passes of it shut down as usual with no errors found. I'm leaning towards the motherboard being shorted somewhere at this point.

So assuming I can get my hands on a different power supply, manage to to boot up and still get crashes, then I should go ahead and just cash out for a replacement motherboard?

#31 My Pc has completely shit itself in Hardware

Left my computer untouched for over 20 hours to let it cool down, when I tried to boot it up, there was no signal from the monitor whatsoever. Usually I see a windows logo before losing signal. When I restarted, the desktop skipped right past the option to go to the BIOS and skipped the windows logo and brought me directly to where I can login just fine and get to the desktop, launch steam, etc. Each restart varies between either nothing happening or going straight to the login screen.

At this point I'm fairly certain the root of this problem lies with the blackout that occurred last week, and whether it shorted something in my psu or mobo. Any way to confirm these suspicions?

#30 My Pc has completely shit itself in Hardware

I'm running Windows 8.1.

If it is the PSU, is there any way to test if it's faulty without obtaining another one? I don't have power supplies lying around haha.

I'll explore around some more inside my desktop, looking around my cpu to see if anything became unlatched or broken.

DrewTry using your onboard GPU instead and see what happens.

Did this as recommended by another friend, had chrome/tf2 idling for about 10 minutes when I lost signal, so I'm pretty sure it's not the gpu (thankfully).

The thing crashed during memtest with only one stick of Ram after 4 passes and no errors, so I'm not banking on it being the Ram either.

Checked all my plugs and connections, dusted everything off, everything seems to be in order as far as I can tell.

psu is a Corsair CX600m 12v, and the mobo is an Asrock b85 pro4

I'm beginning to believe it may be an overheating issue because when I would frequently try and reboot, I couldn't even get to my Windows login without crashing, but when I would open my desktop up and give it some time to cool off in between whatever I was doing, I could login and access some features for a while before shutting off again. How plausible does this sound?

The only thing that doesn't agree with this is what the whole thing was where I put my computer to asleep, and the next day, it refused to turn on with the blinking power light.

Thanks for all the help so far, btw.

#18 My Pc has completely shit itself in Hardware

Come to think of it I did have a blackout earlier last week. Didn't think it affected anything though because the pc worked fine right afterwards.

Pretty sure the issue is something hardware related; I did a fresh install of Windows, and while the computer was able to stay on for roughly 2 hours, it still shut off.

Running memtest 86 now to see if there's something wrong with my RAM, if anyone else has more suggestions that'd be amazing.

Just flashing me different colors like a laffy taffy flavor display

It's now black as I'm typing this

Would it be worth it to wipe everything on here and do a fresh install of Windows or is the problem something with my hardware?
