Well, got the new PSU and nothing, so I guess that settles that… Someone on another forum suggested that as my first PSU was failing I may have inadvertently damaged other components with all the testing I did with it. I guess this is a cautionary tale for anyone who thinks they may PSU...
It’s not looking good. I tested both the power and reset pins, nothing. Removed GPU, nothing. Pulled everything but CPU, still nothing.
I ordered a CORSAIR RMx Series RM650x PSU to serve as a test unit and to be certain the replacement unit wasn’t DOA. Guess I don’t have anything else to try...
I understand, thank you for clarifying. I’ll add this to my list of things to try tomorrow.
I looked at a few of those out of curiosity and must say I resent that a little. XD
I’m sorry I’m new to this and don’t understand, are you referring to jumping the PSU using a paper clip in the 20/24 pin connector?
Okay, I’ll give it a go and report later, thanks.
Hello,
I built this system about 7 years ago and only major problem was graphics card burnt out a few years back.
I’ll try to keep it brief. During the end of a regular day of use, my computer suddenly went to sleep. Woke it up, logged in and resumed activity. After a few minutes it shut down...
