Hey guys, been a while...
Basically I just cleaned out my rig, took off the heatsink to the cpu, took out the video card and the sound card. Cleaned everything of the dust, took apart the video card, reapplied paste to gpu and cpu.
I also for the past year had an open case, with only one fan in the rear. So I plugged in another 3, and put the case back together. First time it loads windows for about 10 seconds (with the little blue bar showing for 10 secs) then restarts.
Now it restarts every time it's just about to load windows, right after it does the cmos and whatnot it just crashes and restarts. It'll come up with the screen.. How do you want to start windows, safe mode, regular, etc..
My psu rails voltages are fine, temps are fine, etc.. I unplugged the 3 fans I added and still.. it's like my power supply can't power my hard drive past the bootup process.
I'm going to try to reinstall mobo drivers and video drivers from safe mode, because I feel like it's the drivers that are making it crash, since I took the cards out (aren't computers typically a pain with this process?) Usually I was fine, but iono what's going on.
If anyone can shed some light on the ordeal, thanks everyone!
