So, absolutely nothing appears on the screen?

It could be due to the processor, RAM, or video card.

Count the beeps, and check them with your motherboard manual.

Take the video card out, put it back again and try it.

the gfx card is built in the motherboard.  and everything is plugged in right and absorbation said it could of been due to lightning b/c there were storms here last night and this morning...and the power company is working on some power lines near my house too so i dunno.

Take your power box in and get it repared 8-) Fuse is probably blown

Did your pc randomly shut off last night?


RE: wtf happened to my computer??? by [MR] on 07-14-2005 at 05:52 PM

no  it was on all night

that might be the problem because when u lose power its actually very bad...i lost my HDD due to it and i had to start all over again..yes u probably blew a fuse or something..smell the inside of the computer and see if u can smell burnt smell and look for dark spots on ur motherboard


RE: wtf happened to my computer??? by [MR] on 07-14-2005 at 09:12 PM

well i foundout that the computer just needed to reset it self ...which means all i had to do was unplug the power plug and plug in back in later and now it works and im on it right now.
