How do you know when your CPU is roast

[Tommy4437]

hey when your mobo boot up(no beep) , and nothing appear on the screen , its just blank , all the fan are working , the cpu is hot too, so is that mean that the cpu is roast or the mobo is roast

I have a 1.1 ghz on a ABIT KT7 RAID

 

[thorin]

1) The expression(s) are Roasted or Toast.
2) Have you check the Monitor connection?
3) There's no beep, but is the PC Speaker pluged in?
4) Do your drives spin up?
5) Have you changed/added ram or any pci cards lately?

Thorin

 

[Tommy4437]

well , hmm the monitor connection is still fine ,and the pc speaker is plug in , my drives all spin up and i have 512 mb of ram , i didnt add any ram or pci card lately

SOMEONE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[thorin]

1) Get another CPU to test in your board.
2) Take you CPU to a friends house and test it on their sys.
3) Take your computer in to the shop.
4) RTFM
5) Call 1-800-HLP-4AMD (or whatever AMDs techsupp is)
5) Try 1-800-CPU-DEAD (jk.... smile it'll all work out somehow)

sh*t if i have another cpu , i wouldnt need help , hmmmmmmmmm its snowing outside , damn if i go outside and bring this to my friend house , i would be freezing to death

 

[thorin]

Your CPU won't just spontaneously die. You would have had to run it overclocked without cooling, at the wrong voltage, etc.....

[Tommy4437]

i have overclock it , but it was never exceed 40 degree celsius , when i boot up the motherboard , the cpu is warming up , so is that mean that the cpu is not toast

 

[Tommy4437]

Anyone who help me solve this problem today , i will send them any of these component

Hercules ULTRA with 64 ddr
ATI Radeon with 64 ddr
256 mb Pc133 Ram
80 gig hard drive
16/10/40x burner
16 x dvd
Voodootv 200
Sound blaster Platinum


As long as you help me solve this problem , i will give u any of those component

 

[JohnCU]

Yeah, I bet. Just test each component out one by one.

 

[Stylewar]

Something fishy here......Heres my opinion, your CPU has been "roast".

Ill take one Hercules Video card, and throw in the 16x DVD for half off.

 

[Tommy4437]

Help me fix it first

 

[Stylewar]

People, whether or not he seriously needs help here im not sure. But he has a post in the FS/FT forum trying to trade this CPU for a PIII 1.3 GHz or higher, stating that he will throw in a video card as well....Might not be worth the time..

 

[Wooster]

This seems to be a hot deal... toasted!! Just kidding.

Looks like you don't have extra CPU to test it out. The only option you have is take out all component except video card, one stick of ram and CPU. Before you do that unplug everything including power cable to motherboard and plug it back in. It might work that way.

It happen to me once, there is a suddendly shortage and my CPU won't boot up but others are working fine. I unplug it and plug it back in and it reset itself. Still a unknown mystery to me. If this doesn't work, try to do the same to CPU too. Other than that, there is nothing I can help you over the net. Too bad you are in Georgia, otherwise I might able to help you out on site.

Just curious, how do you read this message if your system is down. If you have extra PC, then you can use their componet to test it.

 

[Tommy4437]

watever , if u help me and it work fine , i will give u any component , its ur lost so i dont care

 

[Tommy4437]

hmmmmmmmm , thank you , let me test , well i have look at the bottom of my cpu and i spot this brown spot , just under the core , is that mean my cpu is toasted

 

[Tommy4437]

well if it toasted , hmm , its either i am gonna get a rma or its gonna be some switcharoo ehhehehe

 

[Wooster]

If you spotted the brown burning, that's you are toasted. I did that once myself.

 

[thorin]

Why didn't you tell us there was a mark in the first place....your CPU is Toast.
