I saw that someone else posted a thread along the lines of this but I thought I would start a new one seeing that I think this is a little bit different than that persons situation.
The problem; I turned my computer off for the night (rarely do this) and in the morning I go to boot it up and when I press the button on the front nothing happens. I open up the side and see there is a light on my motherboard that is on BUT there is a weird sound (ringing) coming from my power supply when the computer is plugged in (I plug it into a powerbar).
I assume my power supply is done for but I thought I'd ask anyways.
I'll post 2 other problems I've had just incase they help
- When I try to boot up my computer sometimes the motherboard fan won't turn on. It will turn for 2 seconds then turn off, computer will say that a fan isn't on and I have to keep rebooting it till it fully turns on.
- When playing a game that has a higher demand for graphics (Counter-Strike: Source) earlier into the game when I'm playing the textures will start flashing bright green for 5 - 10 minutes then stop.
Those seem like signs of a bad power supply in my opinion.
Suggestions?
