Asked By kilos23g 260 points N/A Posted on - 09/24/2011

Hello, I've been having some issues with my computer and need some help.
I'm going to assume it's an over heating problem, but I'm still not sure what to do. 
 Is there anything else i can do? Help? 
Please and thankyou!

Check for the plugs if it is properly connected to each other: AVR to Monitor and System Unit, then the monitor to AVR and other plugs to additional accessories. Check the back of the power supply if it is set in the proper voltage. (110V – 120V for North America, parts of South America, Japan and Taiwan while 220V – 240V to other countries).

The green light that is in the motherboard is just normal. It means that your motherboard is working however other chips or devices installed is not in a good condition. Check inside if there are burned deformed or discolored components. If the problem is located replace the damaged components.

Check also the connection of cards and other components inside. Try removing it and installing it again.

If its not booting then I suggest that you unplug every thing first. Only the processor and the memory is left behind. Attach the power cable and the monitor cable at the CPU.

Try inter-changing you memory to other slot and also buy a new memory to make sure. Or you can use the eraser to clean your memory. Now do the steps above but this time with the video card at the back. If it doesn't work then I suggest that you try changing your processor as well.

If not then it could be a dead mobo you can bring it to a technician and let them assess your problem.
