PC recently decided it wasn’t going to recover from sleep mode on a regular basis and then from boot either. Fans start whirring, lights on MoBo turn on, but no beep. Turned to my old friend Google and found a stream of ASUS MoBo problems, eerily similar to mine. Tried the most popular fix (remove battery, set BIOS to default settings, replace battery). Suddenly my PC was fully functioning again, for 2 hours I was able to go in and out of sleep mode and turn the PC on and off several times. Moved the PC upstairs and then, nada. It’s completely dead now.<\/p>\n
PC now turning on, fans whirring, lights on MoBo appearing, but no beep and no display on monitor. Removed the RAM (another popular fix), I didn’t even get a 3-beep from the machine.<\/p>\n
I’m a bit new to all of this, so any help would be appreciated. All parts are under a year old and I’m really not liking the timing of this, as I actually need it for a project at the moment, instead of it just being my gaming baby.<\/p>\n
I have a feeling it’s the MoBo, but the fact the lights come on and everything engages makes me a bit confused.<\/p>\n
Thanks in advance,
