    IDE to AHCI Mode - Odd I/O Error

    lol I know. Honest. But I just didnt feel like it. Now, I will say though, I changed a few settings in BIOS for power and performance but before that turned off my computer completely. When i came back and turned it on during lunch, it worked lol. I dont get it but it worked fine. No error, no...

    IDE to AHCI Mode - Odd I/O Error

    Hello all, So I recently found out that I mistakenly installed my OS (Windows 8.1) with IDE mode enabled in my BIOS. I have to flash and upgrade the BIOS and maybe update some drivers but otherwise everything is functioning normally. When I found out that I was running in IDE mode I went...

    Computer Failure - Black Screen, No Post, No Bios

    Alright. So, I finally fixed it and finally found the problem. Turns out that it WAS the damn videocard. I didnt know it could cause such a system-wide problem that it prevents posting and boot. I replaced my existing card, the GTX 260 (RIP), with an R7 250 2GB and BAM...its working. Fully...

    Computer Failure - Black Screen, No Post, No Bios

    Amol, I stated previously that I put in another PSU for the purposes of testing. That PSU is fully functional and nothing changed. It isnt a power supply problem.

    Computer Failure - Black Screen, No Post, No Bios

    Im pretty sure I havent gotten any of those extreme viruses bro and while you're right that I could buy a tablet or something with that money...a tablet cant game or word process or act as a work computer as well as a tablet. Not without spending like $900 on a Surface Pro anyway. I dont need...

    Computer Failure - Black Screen, No Post, No Bios

    What do you mean by "shorted"? And yea, I am now looking for a GPU to replace it but Im not sure what to get. Should I take my good GPU and put it in my bad computer and see if it comes on normally? I either want to get an upgrade for my good computer or a cheap GPU (better than a GTX 260) for...

    Computer Goes Black

    Alright well, the only thing you can do is test. Memtest and prime and Passmark are good but you have to go one at a time with the parts too. If you have multiple sticks of RAM, take em out and test one by one. If you have a spare GPU or onboard integrated graphics, test with each.

    Computer Goes Black

    If my current case is anything to go by, it might be the videocard. My computer went black like that before getting to the point where it couldnt POST or boot anymore. I just tested the GPU again today in another computer and it did the same thing to THAT computer. If you can, maybe take that...

    Computer Failure - Black Screen, No Post, No Bios

    So, @VirtualLarry and @ketchup79 I have a terribly embarrassing admission to make. I do not think that I tested the GPU thoroughly enough out of both stubbornness and fear of damaging my other computer. I took my GTX 260 out of my bad Q6600 computer finally and stuck it into my good computer...

    Computer Failure - Black Screen, No Post, No Bios

    Do you guys think my GPU or CPU could be causing the problem? A friend of mine is saying the CPU might be the problem since its so old...I have to properly rule out the GPU by putting it in another computer but I wanted to ask as well. Im not getting any error codes while its seated and powered...

    Computer Failure - Black Screen, No Post, No Bios

    But I changed out the PSU for a working one from another computer. Its an 550W XFX Core Edition PSU and is in perfect working order. There was no change to the condition of the computer.

    Computer Failure - Black Screen, No Post, No Bios

    I wont be able to do the CMOS Clear or give the mobo a good look over for a week. Im away from home but I see what you're saying VL. Now, I could test my GPU but Ive been afraid to put anything into the mobo like another GPU because I dont want it to get fried because of the problem. lol. I...

    Computer Failure - Black Screen, No Post, No Bios

    Looks like a PCI PC Diagnostic card isnt too expensive. Can be had for $5-15. I might get one just to have it when Im fixing other computers. Now, I took out the CMOS battery thinking that that was all I had to do. Left it for 30 or so seconds and then put it back in. Nothing changed. I just...

    Computer Failure - Black Screen, No Post, No Bios

    lol okay, sorry, I do have to clarify. When I took out the GPU I did in fact yet the error sound/code signifying that there was no GPU attached. Similarly, when I removed all the RAM, I got an error code signifying that there was no RAM in the system. I apologize if I wrote it poorly lol...
