Hey, does anyone here have an idea, why my PC won’t turn on. As you can see in the attached Video, all the Fans start up and i can hear the parts working, but the PC wont actually start.
It will remain in the state shown in the video indefinitely.
Does it make any beeping sounds?
Anything come up on the screen?
Power supply failing might not have enough power for everything any more.
Saw the 4 pin connector going to the motherboard did not see the 12 pin power connection.
Motherboard failing
What are the system specs
Make and models
Age of parts in the system approx is ok
Motherboard: medion ms-7708 ver 1.2
Graphicscard: medion ms-v220b
Harddrive: Seagate barracuda green 1500gb
The Computer itself is about 10 years old, but was repaired in 2015.
After reseating the ram and graphics card i got it to post and boot, and was able to “log in”. When a programm started it crashed and New reseating wont help

At this point I’ll be thankful for any idea.
Thanks upfront.

Do you have any ram installed perhaps? I think it wont boot up without any ram
Already tried it. Both for ram and the graohics card i get the corresponding beeps.
Anything that you had already tried should have been mentioned in your OP.
Getting error beeps with the RAM removed normally suggests that the MB and RAM are ok and that the problem is with an item of hardware that gets checked after the MB and RAM as part of the power on self test (POST) the next thing that gets checked is the graphics solution and being that you are getting no display your add on GPU is implicated one way or another.

Can you describe what actually happened for us.
Software such as Windows can crash and when it does crash you get a BSOD and when enabled a crash dmp is generated.
Hardware failure such as a weak power supply and/or overheating are not software related and when a computer freezes, suddenly turns off or the screen goes jumbled the behaviour should be described as the “computer shut down unexpectedly” etc and not as having crashed as the latter implies a software issue as opposed to an obvious hardware issue when described properly.
Having the correct info means that helpers will not be looking for a software issue when the problem is clearly hardware related.
