Evening folks,
Long time lurker, first time poster.
I just moved to a new city, across this great Canadian country of ours and got my PC shipped UPS.
It arrived it now doesn't work.
Background,
Brand new BioStar motherboard with AMD 3000+ processor. Installed a month before I moved, no issues. Brand new 500w Power Supply installed, same time as motherboard.
I turn pc on, it flashes my Video Card settings in top left corner. nVidia 256mb ddr
Then goes to green BioStar splash bios screen. Freezes there.
Does not go past this, or give me option to boot into any menu and I do not see DOS screen doesn't get that far.
I unplug hard drive, turn PC on, same issue. Just gets to bios screen as well.
So nothing to do with hard drive.
I then took the machine and stripped it right down of all peripherals..even took processor out, just basically reseated everything. \
Put it back together. Same thing
I do tech work and just wanted a 2nd opinion.
So, is it possible to be a processor issue?
I did process of elimination and seems it may be processor..
Thank you kindly guys!
