Hi guys,
I am facing a weird problem since yesterday night.
My pc had accumulated huge dust and web, hence, I decided to clean the pc yesterday afternoon. I used a paint brush to clean the dust from the pc components. My pc components are in my signature.
After the cleaning was done, it was late, I had worked for 3 hours continuosly, and I had to go outside in the evening, I left the pc in that way for 4-5 hours, then started connecting the ports at about 11 pm (The motherboard, psu were already connected beforehand).
At about 11:40 pm, I had the connection complete and I went on to turn my pc on.
But alas, pc won't start. the pc does not go to bios even, just restarts again and again and again and again within 5-8 seconds.
The things that I tried are as following:
1. Take out the cmos battery to reset bios. That did not work.
2. Tried putting a sigle ram stick in eacha nd every of the four ram slots. That did not work.
3. Unplugged all the hdds and turned on the pc. That did not work.
4. Unplugged all peripherals (except keyboard, mouse) and turned on pc. That did not work.
Now I am confused, how to find out what the issue is. There was no power surge, no illegal shut down, no random freeze/restart what soever, the pc was running like an F1 race car all the way. But achanak, this issue came.
Until and unless I can identify what the problem is, I cannot go for an RMA/new purchase. Hence, asking for advice from you all.
Also, all the components cannot go bad all of a sudden. I am really really confused.
Thanks in advance,
Niladri.
P.S. - Saturday ony, i installed windows 8.1 in my pc.
