Hoping someone has a suggestion before I have to start spending to try and fix this. Had a storm come through last weekend and for some reason the power flickering caused my UPS to shutdown. When I started powering everything back up I'm got a BSOD boot loop and haven't found a way around it. Anytime I power on the machine I get the "System exception, thread no handled" error and then it reboots. I am able to get into the bios and everything looks ok there, CPU, RAM and boot drive are all being detected. I have tried using a windows recovery USB but trying to boot into that gives me the same error. I'm kinda running out of ideas unless I start replacing components. System config: OS - Win 11 (installed less then 2 weeks ago) CPU - Ryzen 7 5800X GPU - Sapphire 6800XT RAM - 64gb Mobo - Asus TUF X570-Plus-WiFi Boot Drive - Samsung 980 1TB m.2 SSD - Smasung 860 EVO 2TB PSU- - Corsair 1000w

I just got a new CPU and installed it into a previously working PC and it started going into a boot loop, so I put the old CPU in and made sure the Bios was updated to the latest version. Then I put the new CPU back in and it still goes into a boot loop. The CPU and Vram light come on and it continues to loop. I popped the CMOS battery out and it still didn't work. Is there anything else I can try?

Ladies and gentlemen today is a sad day (Build spec at the bottom) A month or so ago I powered on my machine, the screen, no signal (connected by Displayport as it has been for several years). however by ear the machine seems to go through the same cycle. I tried loads of different stuff to diagnose the cause, tried the GPU in a different PCIE 16x sot, tried using HDMI instead of Display port, tried swapping out cables that are 'known good' and different displays that are 'known good'. still no signal. I checked all connectors in the system were secure. With the GPU in the first 16x slot the LEDs are flashing red, green, green on the GPU (I think, I'm color blind), I tried it in the second PCIE 16x slot and all of it's LEDs are blue on the GPU. either way the VGA led on the mobo is on. I expected the GPU was faulty, so i tried removing the GPU and connecting via the MOBO HDMI (the only video output on the rear IO, still no signal. I started an RMA with EVGA but last night I thought it may well not be the cause or the only faulty part. I vaguely remembered changing settings in the BIOS to specify that I'd set it only to output video to the GPU and not onboard graphics. I've been able to connect to the machine using team viewer and it was fine other than using the microsoft basic display driver. then in an attempt to clear the BIOS setting above I used the clear cmos button on the mobo and now it's stuck in a boot loop where by timing it appears to be going through POST then restarts repeatedly but I have no means of seeing if it's even displaying anything while it POSTs. I've tried using BIOS flashback via USB with the latest version of the BIOS with the correct naming format for this board (Z87DD.CAP filename) but it fails to update every time I try, the flash button flashes then stays lit to show it's failed. I've got the HDDs running on RAID5 running on intel's RST (I think that's the tech). I've been meaning to shift this out to an external NAS for a while now but not had the cash to do it.

Hi everyone! So, I changed my components to a new case, and when I turned the pc on it was boot looping. I saw it was an orange led, I thought it was a RAM issue. Took one stick out, leaving only a stick on the slot farther from the CPU, and the system booted up no problem. Thought it was issue with the RAM stick I took off, so I tried swapping them, and the system booted up as well. Placed both sticks back in, not in dual channel, so side-by-side, and system booted up too... Only when in dual channel it does not boot. After all this, I tried to clear CMOS. This is what I did: Turn PSU off and unpluged power cord, and every other thing plugged to the pc. Removed the CMOS battery from the motherboard and shorted the 2 pins that are related to the clear CMOS, according to the boards manual. Holded the power btn for 1 min. Then waited 10 mins and plugged everything up, and inserted the battery. Turned pc on and still found it boot looping, or powering on but not showing anything on screen, and displaying the orange led... What am I missing here?

Hello, I hope all is well! last night I was gaming, playing with the boys. Before I went to bed I shut down my pc, i woke up and here we are My pc is powercycling, turning off then on, repetitive. I tried diagnosing this myself, switched the graphics card, reseated the ram, tested the powersupply, and checked the capacitors on the motherboard. Everything looked completely fine, I even used a CLEAN eraser to clean the RAM, and I also did a reset on the bios and left the CMOS battery out for a few hours, nothing worked. This issue with the pc has been happening a lot recently, once I left the pc on for awhile, it was powercycling and it booted perfectly after an hour, but it shouldn’t be doing this? It was working fine the night I shut it down. I also unplugged all unnecessary drives and USB devices, hoping that would do the trick, and nah. Nothing worked specs Nividia GeForce GTX 950 Asus Z87 - pro motherboard Intel core i7 CPU 16GB DDR4 ram 65235975792__8B11CB65-D69E-4563-93EC-E291D2F408A6.MOV

Since about a week Im experiencing a really weird problem with my PC. Every time I try to boot it, it gets stuck in boot loops. It worked fine for a year before that. I tried lots of things and noticed that it only does that when there's a SATA device plugged in SATA port 1 to 4. When something is plugged in port 5 or 6, the pc boots normally. So, I thought that my ports were broken untill I tried to hotplug a SATA device on port 1. The drive popped up like normal and worked like it should. So in my logics there can't be something broken on the port right? To make it even weirder: When I plug a drive into port 1 to 4, and first pull out the power cord and back in, it does boot normally. So it only boots normally with something plugged in to port 1 to 4 when the power cord has been pulled out before. Things I already tried: - Different SATA cables - Different SATA devices - Updated the bios - Disk check with Seagate tool - Checked boot order in bios - Tried all different ports - Removed overclock - Reset cmos by removing battery Anyone who can help me out on this one? Pc specs: - Asus b450f rog strix - Ryzen 5 3600x - Gigabyte gtx1080 - 16gb Gskill rgb RAM - M.2 Kingston SSD - 2 SATA SSD - 1 SATA HDD

Hi, I completed a PC build with no issues. All HW listed properly, XMP enabled. Installed Windows 11 and usual updates/drivers. Restarted PC a few times too, no issue. Turning on the PC the next day (~10 hrs after shutdown) and I'm suddenly no able to post and PC is power-cycling, turning itself off and on in a loop. PSU was clicking after a sec before following restart. My MB has status LEDs, DRAM was solid orange. So tried to clear CMOS, tried seating in each RAM separately. Realized PSU not clicking anymore and PC restarts much quicker, right after a second. DRAM light is gone too, but now CPU one is solid orange. Rechecked all cables, tried to swap the CPU cable, even tried to put both 2x2 and 2x4 connectors. Tried to loosen heatsink too just a bit. No change, issue still present. Mobo is on stand-offs, no cables behind. During power-cycling all fans are spining and GPU lights up as well. But I also tried to remove GPU and all peripherals, no difference. Tried to remove front panel connector too, but I'm able to turn PC on by short-circuiting power switch as well. My case/mobo does not have a speaker and there is nothing in manual about troubleshooting besides the mere mention of the existence of those status LEDs. I'm not even really sure if the present CPU LED is indicator of anything as PC is turned on for just a second before next loop, after 3s. No idea how to properly troubleshoot further, especially when the day before was everything ok.. TLDR; PC won't post and is power-cycling (1s on 3s off). At first DRAM status orange LED light on, after CMOS clear the CPU one; all after a day of no issues and Win 11 already running.

Hello, Long time reader, first time poster. I just recently (May 25th) built a new computer. The specs are below.: - Coolermaster HAF XB Evo - EVGA Supernova 850 G5, 80 Plus Gold 850W - Intel 660P Series M.2 2280 1TB NVME SSD - Ryzen 5 3600 - G.Skill Trident Z Neo (32 GB in 2 x 16, DDR 3600) - EVGA Geforce RTX 2070 Super FT3W Ultra Gaming - TUF Gaming X570-Plus w/Wifi (BIOS Version 1405) Now 1407 The computer worked wonderfully until this evening. I got two days of heavy use out of it. I'm on the tail end of 4 hours of troubleshooting, and have decided to come hat in hand to the experts, as I have apparently made my predicament worse. The issue.: I was playing a game (Grim Dawn, not very taxing) when my monitors went black and the computer restarted. The computer loaded up to windows, no issues. I thought that was weird, and was able to use my computer for a few minutes before the screen again went black and the computer restarted. This continued a few more times with intermittent amounts of times I could be in windows before it happened. At one point, it started to give this message on a windows BSOD: "Critical_Process_Died" Eventually I gave up, and decided to reinstall windows in an effort to see if that was going to fix the problem. I did so, and now I am stuck in a boot loop where I can't even get to the point of picking what country I want to install before the computer restarts. If I load into the BIOS and stare at the utility, it works fine and doesn't force restart. Its only when I boot that it causes the issue. What I've tried.: Reinstalling windows. Reseating the RAM/removing and trying just 1 stick of RAM. Removing GPU to try and use onboard (could not get onboard graphics to work, put GPU back in) Trying a new power outlet, with no power bar. Reseating the NVME SSD. Removing and reseating all power cables from the PSU. EDIT - Memtest86 ran and performed overnight with no issues. EDIT - I used a guide to check the drive with the DISM windows tool and sfc /scannow, and neither turned up any issues. EDIT- Grabbed a second SSD that works via SATA cable, installed windows on it using the computer, attempted to boot into windows and received exact error as before. EDIT - Updated BIOS to most current 1407 version, error persisted. EDIT - Swapped GPUs to one that worked fine in another computer. Problem persists. EDIT- 05/30 Took it to a store, had a repairman look at it, determined most likely issue is MOBO/CPU Edit - 05/30 Bought a new MOBO, Asus B450 Prime, exact same issue after installing components. I would appreciate any suggestions or things I can do to help test.

My pc is currently boot looping and not responding to keyboard commands. I had just swapped the motherboard and cpu from my old a8 5500 amd cpu to my "new" Intel core i5 4670. It had booted up earlier but I changed a few things in the bios and I can't get it to boot and I can't get back into bios to reset it. Doesn't want to respond to my attempts to clear cmos. Any help maybe I'm not something right?

Hi guys, I have a somewhat a weird problem after changing my PSU. I already searched ton of threads regarding similar issues that people experienced but none seems to be a fix to my case what so ever, so I decided to make my own thread and provide you as many details that I can. First things first I bought this PC fully built back in 2016. Its a mid range gaming pc that was pretty good deal in terms preformance > price. And indeed it was great while it worked properly, but after somewhat 2 - 2 and a half years after purchasing I experienced auto shutdowns and restarts if I turn on some heavy load or bump up the graphics options in some of the games ( ex. Fortinte, PES 2020, even Ring of elysium the battle royale...). This never ever happened to me before as I could run the battlefield 1 on ultra without any issues or shutdowns, only somewhat higher temps obviously but all in range of safe usage. So after some online research I found that 90% of the people fixed this issue by changing their PSU, but before I did that I tried every single alternative option in hope I would not need to buy a new one, but unfortunately none of the tricks & tips from google worked. So I decided to ignore that problem and get used to running things on low - medium and render videos in 720p instead of 1080p because 1080p would crash it aswell. But few days ago I finally decided enough is enough and I will buy a new one and fix this issue once forever... ...and it didnt turned out as I planned, what happened is my PC now sometimes turns on for a minute or two, sometimes for 30 seconds but most of the time its turns on for a fraction of a second and shuts down in attempt to try to boot again but longer I allow it to do this the quicker it restarts and after 2 attempts the only thing left lighten up is my main PC tower power button...now this is very depressing, frustrating and mind buggling because it seems like I fucked up my pc totally by trying to fix it. I will now list of the things I tried to do so far ( before I quited messing with it ) List of things before I changed the PSU I checked my temps while under load GPU would hang around 65C-73C max and CPU would be around 33C- 43C ( new cooler ) 39C - 48C ( stock intel cooler ) Reinstall Windows OS ( 2x times ) Deleted all my GPU drivers with DDU and cleaned %temp% ( temporary files ) Cheched for viruses, none found Tried plug/unplug PSU cables and reseating GPU Changed thermal paste to the CPU Bought new cooler for CPU and messed a bit to get better airflow, temps are just where I want them to be now. Reseted BIOS settings to default factory settings Updated BIOS Updated all windows updates Underclocked my card, after that didnt worked I also tried to overvolt it and undervolt it, I am was basicaly desperate at this point so I tried everything that I could I tried to plug my power outlet directly to the wall PRIME 95 cpu stress test all cores max temp of 45C and it did not crash the system FURMARK gpu stress test for 1080 predefined profile PC crashed immedietly I didnt even saw anything, it crashed as soon as I clicked GO! at this point I gave up None of these worked so I gave up and got used to run things on lower load than I would prefer. ( low settings ...blabla ) Here is a list of things I tried after I changed PSU and my PC denied to boot properly Checked and plug/unplugged all the cables from the PSU Reseated Both RAM sticks and tested it with each one and in each socket Cleaned some dust leftover Messed up with cable managment but I did a good job so I didnt got to do much more Pluged and unpluged cables from PSU Reseated GPU Changed CPU thermal Paste again Managed to get to the bios once and saw that CPU rendering cool 24C idle so no its not overheaeting issue Reseted CMOS Battery, I waited 30 min before returning it back inside Reseated GPU again...lol Tried running it without GPU Turned it on with only power outlet .....I think thats about it The funny thing is when I change sockets in my extended power cord it runs for a longer time same happens if I plug it to the wall, but if I try the socket I already tried it boots for a second and resets, If I let it stay overnight and come back it runs for a much longer time. Motherboard works fine everything else works fine and is powered all the lights show on each device ( mouse, keyboard, monitor ), but it denies to boot properly. I know this is plenty of text, but I wanted to provide you guys with as much detail that I possibly could in hope I will be able to fix this problem anytime soon. Below are my PC specifications GPU: XFX AMD RX 480 8GB stock clock memory 1288mhz , vram 2000mhz CPU: intel i5 6500 four cores 3.2ghz RAM: 2x 8gb hyper X so in total I have 16gb of ram MOTHERBOARD: gigabyte ultra durable h110m HARD DRIVE: 1x Toshiba 1tb OLD PSU: EPS ENERGON 650W semi - modular NEW PSU: CORSAIR CX650W semi-modular OLD CPU COOLER: stock intel cooler NEW CPU COOLER: Cryorig h7 PC CASE: COOLER MASTER K380 MID-TOWER I dont want to make this any longer now I honestly think this is more than enough for you to come up with some ideas regarding what should I do....dayum. Thank you guys for all the efforts and suggestions, means alot :)
