Well I had this habit of putting my system in standby mode when i went to bed. One particular morning, I woke up and the system was off, so i turned it on and I got no video now and no bios beeps or errors. The system powers on, my fans spin, HDD light comes on in the front of pc as well as the Cd-Rom light, but no video or anything else. I reseated my ram and proc, disconnected every cable in it, removed the modem, everything and still no good. System maker told me the mother board was bad, so i replaced it, still no good. Now they tell me it's the proc. Ram is good, tested in another system. Only options i can think of now are the power supply is somehow bad, or the processor took a dump. Any ideas would greatly help me.
Emachines T5026
Intel P4 3.06 ghz proc
Intel 915 chipset Mobo
Elixir 512 MB DDR Pc3200
160GB HDD Sata 1.5
DVD/RW +/-
Is it possible that the power supply is bad but still able to power certains parts of my Comp and not maybe the bios or something? On a limited budget and really need this comp working and don't want to keep nickle and diming it to find the problem.
