| Computer will not boot up | Configuration: |
I left a post earlier using someone elses thread, but I think I know how to create my own post now.
Hello, I\'m new here.
I\'ve had a problem with my computer for a while now. One night I was playing around on it fine then it just started acting up and kept re-booting on me. It would load back in, but about 5 minutes after it finished booting up to the desktop and everything it would re-boot on me to no end. Then the next morning I attempted to turn on my computer and nothing would happen. My monitor light and power button light turn on with the monitor flashing on and off. My CPU fan and P/S both work, at least the fans spin on them, but I seem to be getting a strange tic sound which I think is coming from my hard drive but I am not 100% positive. The tic can be random, sometimes it is divided between 1-2 seconds and sometimes it is divided between 3-4 seconds. I’ve tried everything I could think of, and I’ve had other people look over it. I’ve built computers from scratch in the past but this one has me stumped. I’ve tried placing a new hard drive in but that never helped, I even got a new stick of ram for it incase that was the problem but it never helped either, nothing changed when I put a new hard drive in or the stick of ram. I use SDDR sticks. I was going to re-format the hard drive but I can’t even seem to get the A: drive to read my boot disk. I tried switching my hard drive from primary to secondary, which by the way when I done that I got further then I did when it was on primary. It would at least show the booting up process on my monitor then it would give me a message saying something along the lines of Non-System Disk Error or something like that, I’d have to check it again. I am also unable to turn the computer off with the power button on the front of the tower. The only way I am able to shut it off is by un-plugging the tower from the wall. Anyways this is all I have for now, if anyone needs more information about my computer let me know and I will see what I can do. It is an IBM Pentium III 955mhz processor, 256 MB RAM, ATX whatever motherboard (I can look at it later if need be), with a 15 GIG Hard Drive.
Additional Comments: Thank you in advance for taking the time to read over this and help.
