So this started one day when I shut the computer down. I went to start and shut it down that way.
When I turned it on again it turned itself off after a few minutes. Then it wouldn’t turn on until a few more minutes, then it again shut itself off…
I thought I heard a clicking sound when it goes off, so I think it’s the power supply.
So I order a new one, wait a week, a slow painful week. And then I install the power supply.
Same issue.
I bring my tech guy over and he plays with the settings in Bios and updates my Bios. It never shuts off in bios so we think it’s fixed…
He has to go because he’s a streamer and he has a tournament. So I rush him home and think problem solved.
I go to be with my computer, get her out of BIOS and after a few minutes she shuts off and doesn’t turn back on. Same problem as before.
So now I’m at a loss. I have no idea what’s causing my problem.
Please. If anyone has any ideas I’d love to hear it. I just want my PC back.
😮 that sounds quite long… unless it is really special motherboard, i would try to ask elsewhere, if you have options
sorry about your troubles
Sadly I don’t seem to have options. But I thank you for your concern 14th_Cylon.
I will try to survive the harsh conditions of no PC as best I can.
At least he talked me into getting a new CPU so maybe I can finally play Marvel Rivals without it crashing.
Dunno why Marvel Rivals of all games gives me that trouble. But hey, this CPU is twice as good as me current one.
Plus if it wasn’t the power supply, there’s not a lot of options left for what it could be, MOBO or CPU and I"m replacing them both.
The CPU will arrive on the 8th, sigh dunno why the MOBO will take so long. but oh well. Maybe this will give me time to finish Super Mario Wonder
