Help Naman In Troubleshooting My PC

[1D4LV]

ganito kasi yun:

- iniwan ko kahapon na naka suspend mode dahil I have to do something outside, hindi ako nagpapatay kasi ng computer, if i know na may kailangan pa akong gawin. saves on boot-up times, ika nga.

- when i went back, naka BSOD na sya... Memory dump.

Ngayon pag starting na sya, namamatay before I even reach booting of windows. I also noticed na pag nakakalusot, ang bagal ng POST nya, and minsan hang sya. Pero most of the time, siguro mga 80% nagshushutdown sya, even after the POST (kung nakakalusot). In fact, maski nasa loob ako ng CMOS configuration, namamatay sya.

I have already made some isolations, hindi RAM ang problem.
Possible kaya na sa PS ito? o sa board mismo?

TIA

Try to do a visual inspection of your motherboard's capacitors for possible leaks.

You can also check if your processor's HSF is working properly.
If the fan is dead, then your processor could be overheating and will either throttle down (hence the slowdown), and as an added safety feature, your motherboard might opt to power down as well. Pero I doubt ito yung cause ng problem mo....

thanks..
- no capacitor leaks. more than 2 years pa lang naman itong PC.
- the fan is ok.

I guess the next best thing to do is to try to borrow a PSU from and test it on your system to find out if it's really the culprit.

I experienced something similar to your problem last december.
My 2 year old S939 motherboard died on me. At first intermittent bsod. Eventually, ayaw nang mag POST. I gave up and got a new system na lang .

Sounds like a motherboard problem to me.

But since PowerSupply are cheap, you can borrow a known good PS to check just in case.

thanks, is it possible for a MB below 3 years old? hwag naman sana....

it's possible, have seen and experienced it on a less than two year old MB.

Chief HappyG,

I'm sure naman na there's no OS or malware issues, so crossout na natin yun.

Possible causes:

1. Defective MOBO
2. Defective PSU

When you say namamatay, did the LED or fan were still on? Or total shutdown talaga?

Yes, I have seen such happen. (aside from those capacitor problems)

[FrankDrebin]

pwede rin palang PROC issue.

Similar problem with me.
I've been trying to fix my home PC for days now. Has a "keyboard error" at startup and it keeps on re-booting. I suspect the "pc booster" program OR the Windows update itself messed my system..

FD, namamatay talaga. ang natitira lang is yung LED ng power switch, but the fan completely turns off.

yes, i am sure hindi OS or malware issue, dahil yesterday, bago mag talagang total shutdown, i can still run linux (dahil dual boot ang PC). pero kaninang umaga, wala na talaga, hindi na ako umaabot sa bootloader, hanggang POST na lang, pero ang bagal pa.

pag pumapasok naman sa CMOS setup, naghahang o namamatay din.

Does your keyboard use a PS2 or USB connection? Have you tried testing/using a different keyboard?

If you suspect the keyboard:

Don't waste your time getting a different keyboard. Just disconnect the existing one and see if the system boots up normally.

Possible motherboard or PSU pa din based on your observations.

Just buy a cheap PSU to test it out.

If you have a usb keyboard, it usually comes with a USB-PS/2 adapter. If you want to eliminate the keyboard as a factor, you need to boot up with the keyboard hooked up to a PS/2 port.

Once the pc boots into Windows, the keyboard can go back to the usb connection.

HG,

Isolate pa. hehehe. PSU muna.

When a PS/2 or USB Keyboard is disconnected/unplugged, in some cases defective keyboard, it will not boot "normally". It will prompt you a keyboard error.

but you can config the bios not to stop/pause if there was any error message.

Possible, but the user KERSMcRae didn't that is why it prompted him.

^my PC comes with PS/2 keyboard. I borrowed a USB keyboard at our office and it was detected. I was able to access & check my BIOS setting. Problem is Windows cant load (log on screen). Our IT guy advised me to boot on CD. Im not sure if my PS/2 keyboard will work with a USB adaptor.
