I require some desperately needed pointers on what I need to look at next.
I have just build myself a spanking new computer on Monday, it was running well for the next 3 days and yesterday it just sort of ?died? and won?t post.
Here are some details and observations:
1. Computer won?t post at all, monitor show ?no signal?. On/Off button on case wont start computer
2. I can see power to my motherboard (Asus P5B Deluxe shows blue ?sleep? light?)
3. None of the fans are moving at all ? I have a Antec P180B case
4. Since booting the computer on Monday, the CPU temperature was around 28 ? 30C and motherboard around 33C. It has constantly stayed at that range for the last 3 to 4 days.
5. I have even install Window XP and have be running fine until it died
6. The last thing I did before the system ?died? was install Intel Matrix Raid driver and the system was running for at least 2 hours after that.
7. One thing I tried that may indicate some issue ? I switch power off from the PSU and then switch it on again on the PSU, when I press the ON switch on the case I can see the motherboard attempts to start for a split second but it went back to the sleep mode instantly (blue neon light on motherboard)
8. I have also update all the latest BIOS and drivers from Asus
Later today I can try pulling out some of the hardware to see what is preventing the system from booting. It?s not that I was never able to power the system on but it seems to have ?died? when everything was looking great.
Please let me know if you have similar experience and also what could be the possible problem that I am seeing. Any and all help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
chp
