Okay, I Really Need Help

Hardware Hub Build a PC
1

Okay, so I recently built my first computer around two weeks ago, and it has been working great. Last night, I decided not to turn the computer off, so I put it in sleep/standby mode. This morning, I can't get the system to power on and I have no idea why, all of the fans are running on the system when I power it on, but the power indicator light on the front of the case is no longer powering on as well, nor is the light on my PCI network card. 

ANY Ideas, I'm like freaking out here.

 

System Specs:

PSU: EVGA 500w 80 Plus Power Supply

MB: MSI- H97m- G43

CPU: Intel core i3 4130

Oh, and I'm not receiving any visual output from the mobo's VGA, or HDMI output.

turn the power switch off located on the back of PSU ... then turn it back on after a min  .... then power the system on by the front power switch ... let me know what happens

3

Or push the power reset button ... you probably do not have the bios settings set to wake the PC from sleep with mouse and keyboard

4

Reset the whole thing and turn standby off

5

Alright I'll try that. Currently I pulled te cmos battery so I'm waiting 10 minutes to see what happens

hopefully you had the rig completely powered down and unplugged and were touching the side of your case before removing the battery

7

I did, but pulling the cmos battery did nothing I'm still getting nothing except spinning fans.

If you get it running again ... I never shut mine off or put it to sleep ... I set my monitors to sleep and have them set to wake by mouse.

Yeah, hopefully I get it running again, I'm on tom's hardware right now trying to see if anybody knows what's wrong with it.

unplug the system and touch the side of case to discharge any static

then reseat all plugs to mobo including all sata plugs to and from HDDs and GPU and reseat the ram and then try to power on ... let us know what happens  (don't wear fuzzy socks    lol)

sounds like a possible faulty mobo, when in doubt, RMA. if you've redone all of the mobo power connections, and your not even getting it to boot to bios, it's probs the mobo. although it could be the PSU i suppose. i'ts pretty rare to see a decent psu fail though. 

 

RMA the board, then when you get the new one call microsoft and tell them you had a faulty board. your copy of windows binds itself to the mobo. they'll send you a free key via email since your board died

we may never know  ...
