Hi all, first post on here.
Did my first self build last week with help from a friend.
ASUS P5Q SE2
600W EZCool PSU
1024Mb nVidia GeForce GTS 250
Intel Core 2 Quad 8300 2.5GHz
2Gb RAM
320Gb + 80Gb Hard drive
Windows 7 64bit
Built it last week and its been having problems powering up. Sometimes it doesn't start when I turn it on at the front, sometimes it turns itself off when on, crashes or resets itself.
I looked around for what problems it may be and decided to try updating the drivers but when I turned it on, nothing. No lights, no fans, no beeps.
Replaced the PSU with another and still nothing, the LED on the motherboard does not even come on and as I know its not the PSU I'm thinking it must be the motherboard.
I've only had it up and running for a less than a week, could my motherboard be dead already? I really don't want to shell out another £70 to get a new one.
Any suggestions?
Cheers!
