tower power led problem

[AND_YOU_ARE]

Recently the power led on my tower has been blinking on and off in a regular pattern. I have checked the manual for my mobo, and there is nothing telling me that is a bios warning or problem. The pc runs fine in windows, games, and movies. Any ideas to why this is happening? I didnt do anything to modify the hardware, so i dont know why it is happening.

Thanks for any help.

Make sure that the power connector for the led on the mobo is firmly connected

I have, not just that one, but all the conectors that plug into the mobo. Its strange.

Yeah that does sound strange. The only thing I can think of is that there would be something wrong with the led itself, but who knows

A self blinking led? LOL. IDK. I'll play around with the connectors and try to reset the mobo settings.

no, not that the led is supposed to blink but that it may be doing the blinking abnormally

 

[AND_YOU_ARE]

Yeah, idk, never heard of a led blinking when it is not susposed to, that is why i think its something on the mobo, but i dont have any other problems. oh well.

Maybe I can sell this tower on ebay and write up a story about how its haunted, selling it for a few thousand dollars. Anyone intrested?

Clear your BIOS.
