Okay. Does everyone understand that by pressing “ok” it is sending right back into bios. Hitting okay is NOT booting to windows 10. Hitting okay is KEEPING HIM IN BIOS.

I have a friend who recently built a PC. He then moved apartments and when trying to set up his PC in his new place it is stuck in bios. “You have not made any changes to the Bios settings” pops up when he tries to exit it. I don’t know how to help him so any tips would be appreciated.

To start off, this PC is the first PC I have ever built. But today my problem is that my PC will randomly power down when i unplug, say i charging cord for my phone. this problem is only showing when its unplugged from the MOBO itself. Is this normal?

dead on

it was the CPU and RAM that were fried, I was able to trouble-shoot each part and I am now typing this my (now) working PC. I have definitely learned my lesson.

Don’t scare me like that man. The light on the motherboard for CPU isn’t lit so I’m gonna hope that nothing is wrong with it

Bigger the mistake, the better the lesson ??

No good but I appreciate the help though

I’ll try that and let you know what happens ??

What’s even worse is I didn’t even know i shouldn’t do that. But a 500$ mistake really made me learn my lesson.

If my MOBO was bricked would anything on it still light up? And show a code?

So while building my first PC, I did a dumb thing. First off, I had gotten it set up, running and windows installed. While it was running I put a screw in on my MOBO. It instantly froze my PC, I shut it down immediately. But now when I power it on, the MOBO code is “10” or “PEI CORE IS STARTED” and a light pops on indicating a problem with the RAM. Everything lights up and runs but it won’t boot. I tried both sticks by themselves, switched the Order of them and it still fails to boot. But when I plug the ram in and turn it on the LED’s on them still light up. Main question.. Did I short my RAM or is it something even worse?
