PC Suddenly stopped working

[hmccarthy]

I tuned my pc off last night as usual and today nothing is working. On my MOBO DRAM, VEGA and BOOT are all red, meaning their not working, yet nothing was changed. My gpu fans are still running, after i re-installed it. I reinstalled my ram and its RGB is still working and i tried a different boot and to no avail. I have not moved, adjusted or change anything. Any help is greatly appreciated.

while testing the PSU may be the way to go, even a positive test doesn’t mean they are 100% OK.
so best to swap out the power supply unit with any other you can get your hands on - neighbour, family, friend, work, old box of spare parts.

I switched out the psu and that didnt change anything.

sounds like hardware has gone south - which one will be a suck it and see exercise.
memory and GPU would be the easiest, then the mobo.

is there anyway to see if the gpu or mobo is faulty without switcing it out?

Nope… sadly.

Always a good idea to provide a full parts list when asking for help on tech forums;

Provide the brand and model name or number for the CPU, MB, the RAM (including the amount) add on video card if one is used and both the original and the replacement PSU (power supply unit) that you swapped in, providing these details will enable folk to better assist you.

@hmccarthy, do you still need help?
