Solved Can't boot aby systém on my pc

[bbdra]

Hi, I suspect a damaged CPU/Motherboard, could anyone help me diagnose the problem please? At most, I booted the system info safemod in Windows XP, however, I managed It only three times today, for short time only. Its possible access the data from another computer.

to be so many errors, of different nature and on different OS's, my guess is the hard drive.

try removing it and either putting it into another PC or into an external enclosure for a) error checking and b) data recovery.

I tested all hard drives on an old computer. The data are undamaged. I'm pretty sure that disks in this case are not the main cause of system errors, because I can't boot live CDs even if the disks are disconnected, windows installation won't start, pc will freeze right away. Obviously, something is dying in the PC, I just don't know if it's a motherboard or a CPU, the graphics could have been damaged too, however, the PC doesn't work even if I use another graphics card.

because I can't boot live CDs even if the disks are disconnected

ah, that changes things a bit.

next possible culprit would be the memory.
remove it, clean its contacts and mobo slots with a soft bristled brush and re-seat just one of them.
try that, if no luck, swap over the sticks and try the other one (providing you have more than one).

I took out the memory, cleaned the contacts and slots, and gradually tested it. The situation is the same. Rescue discs wont load. I managed to load the memtest, but it froze in progress. The same thing has happening before. I tried to use the tested ram from another PC, but it didn't help. Thus I can say for sure that ram does not affect the malfunction. I feel that the functionality is affected by temperature, because the computer responded less at a lower temperature when the window was open.

moving higher up the food chain, you are now looking at a faulty CPU or mobo, and testing those starts to get trickier.
you could buy new parts and run the gauntlet or perhaps it's time to take it into a repair shop.

Hi, I'm writing because about a month ago the PC stopped working again. After replacing the CPU, it worked for a long time, but it had a defect, which I attributed to low CPU consumption. The defect manifested itself in the fact that the PC failed to boot on the first powerup, always just the fans spun and the screen remained black. I had to turn the PC off and on again, then the PC usually started working. In this way, I operated the PC for about 2-3 months, until the moment when it started to shut down on its own, and finally, about a month ago, it could not even boot. It only spins the fans but the screen is black. From this I judge that the error will most likely be in the motherboard. I have already received a new one that I would like to replace with a damaged one, but first I will test the PSU, although I think that the PSU will be fine, because it is a quality source of seasonic gold and I think it is still under warranty. I've been thinking about trying to put the original Phenom X4 CPU in the new motherboard so that I don't have to buy a new one, but I'm afraid it's damaged and could destroy the motherboard. What would you recommend to me?

 

[bbdra]

Today I tested the PSU, the measured values are in the picture. Is PSU ok?

 

[bbdra]

Somewhere on the web, I came across a mention that PSUs do not always determine the functionality of PSUs correctly. In the specific case, he allegedly measured good values, but could not handle a higher load. Is it true?

 

[veeg]

I read in my research that this particular psu goes down to 85 percent under a heavy load.. You may want to consider getting another psu..

Post the model number of the seasonic gold psu..

[bbdra]

Thanks for reopening the thread. Phillpower2 I'm sorry I didn't send the post earlier before it was closed.

I also want to thank others for their assistance

The PSU model name is Seasonic Focus 550 gold.

There are more informations on the manufacturer's website.
