Can anyone here help me?
I have noticed that after the computer inadvertently shuts down, it gives that boot message and will not boot unless I leave the computer off for a few hours. Then it will boot right back up. I am wondering if the computer needs a capacitor somewhere to drain out...
Hi Carnage and good to hear from you again! Long time for sure!
Yes, I checked the BIOS first thing...and boot order is correct. Not sure what else it can be...
Sure would be nice to get some help here! I have Windows 10 installed...keeps shutting down. Will not install updates...fearing I may have a virus.
After the rig shuts down, I get this message: Reboot and select proper boot device. Insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key...
Our security computer worked perfect for months...then, Norton expired and I made the mistake of letting Norton techie take control of my computer and reinstall and new version of Norton.
Ever since, often on a daily basis, come home, and computer shut down, then asks for a bootable disc or...
Thank you Carnage! You people sure are helpful here!
I have been a bit overwhelmed with other projects at our ranch and hope to complete the build in the next couple of days.
I hope to post pics and results of the new build.
Have a great day everyone!
Midnight,
Thank you for sharing. Interesting post! In the future, I will let the motherboards cycle at least a dozen times or more just to be sure.
I too have never experienced a motherboard recycling on a repeated basis. This was a first for me.
If I recall correctly, I believe I let the...
Hi Spud!
I downloaded their installer as they recommended.
I am trying it on my Windows 7 Ultimate rig.
Not sure how to configure their client.
I did change my network adapter settings as they suggested as well as some other settings.
Here is what they also asked me to do:
How do I...
Hi everyone and Merry Christmas to all!
I just found a good price on Private Internet Access for one years's worth of protection.
I installed it, but when I attempt to surf, no website works.
I just sent their CS an email, requesting help.
Does anyone here have any experience with PIA VPN...
Update:
First, I tested the both PSU's. Both tested good on voltage tests to MB, CPU, etc.
Second, I installed the G3258 on new Gigabyte MB, with new RAM, with new SeaSonic G650.
I also cleared CMOS and installed a new CR2032 just to make sure. I did attach the Zalman LQ300 just to play it...
Cor,
You sure are incredibly helpful. I will do as you suggested. It sure makes a lot of sense. I forgot to use my PSU tester on the two PSU's. I will do that too, although it merely measures voltage on each of the wires coming out of the PSU. I suppose that is better than nothing.
Good...
Yes, I was surprised too. They asked me to give them the serial number, then informed me the warranty would expire in March 2017. Next, they gave me the option of their "normal" sending options or their "expedited" options. I went with the free expedited option and it will arrive on Monday...
UPDATE:
I installed the brand new Seasonic 650 Gold. Same problem! Computer turns on for 2-3 seconds, then shuts itself off. Then repeats the same pattern over and over.
Now I am beginning to suspect the i7-4770k CPU. I have replaced the following components:
Motherboard
RAM
PSU
What...
Thanks Cor! Will do! I was thinking the same exact thing and actually broke out a brand new Seasonic G-650 Gold...not as good as the Platinum, but gotta make do with what we have!
Will post results later tonight or tomorrow!
