  1. Desktop not booting


    Hi! I bought an Asus RTX 2060 about a month ago, and everything was running perfect. About three days ago my computer started shutting off randomly, and the following day it booted with a power surge error. Nothing else in the house was shutting down, so i just reset the bios and the cmos, even tried with a different battery, didn't work. Unplugged everything, leaving only main monitor, main disk and keyboard, and nothing. So i figured i should upgrade my psu, mine was old and 430w, so i got a 750w psu. It arrived today, umpplugged and cleaned everything, put everything back together, turned it on and same error. The 3.3v rail would be a bit under voltage, but nothing too serious. I've tried pretty much everything, even installing the old graphics card, but nothing worked. Now it won't boot at all, it has power, the fans are running but all i get is the black screen of death. Anyone has a clue what's going on?

    :)

  2. Desktop not booting :/

    As suggested earlier, pull one stick; boot. Replace the stick and pull the other, boot. Post results.

    Desktop not booting

    laptop doesnt boot automatically

    This is what happened.

    1. Did a repair install and later disabled hibertnate in CMD.
    2. Enabled legacy option ROM in BIOS.
    3. After a few times startup ( i used the system in such mode for 5 days), changed boot option back to default.
    4. Vola!! It boots automatically to win10 without any keypress. Tested it with many starts to confirm the same.
    5. Re-enabled hibernate option using CMD and later selected Fast Startup.
    6. System booted normally, without the need for any keypress.

    I do not know exactly whether such steps resolved the problem or what else happened, hence cannot suggest above steps.

    Many thanks to all members who helped to troubleshoot problems.
