• Computer does nothing on boot
    4 replies, posted
When I turn on my computer I hear all the fans but nothing else happens. The monitor doesn't show anything and I checked the connections, the graphics card fan runs at full speed and the other fans run normally (as it always does on boot). I left like this for about 5 minutes and still the same.

Well, I hate to bring bad news, but that usually means that your CPU is, incompatible, or dead, but it can also mean that your motherboard is dead. Did you switch CPU's recently?
You sure your GPU isn't burned out?
If all the fans spin up the GPU fan will too, I have had this problem.
I fixed it by removing one of my RAM sticks, I've tried 2 and it just doesn't boot up now for some reason, also alternated them so it's the the RAM. So now I only have 2GB
