I think I bricked my PC, is there still hope?

[GAME 55]

I will just have to try everything you told me guys, I have absolutely no money at the moment AT ALL for buying anything, I will try everything and then when it fails, I will just try not to get depressed, and live without the PC for some time until I save up some momey, what a disappointment!

Chances are its not the RAM, if its not starting at all u probably knocked a power lead loose. Check all the connections.

The fans are working, the lights and RGB are working too, The CPU Cooler, working, it is all working, just won’t post, I tried to test the monitor, it also works.

 

When I turn on the PC, I find the Num Lock LED on my keyboard light and turn off, now NOTHING, not even a BIOS with no RAM, just nothing.

Alternatively you could install a piezo speaker and listen for the beeps, it would tell you why it's not posting

 

If you don't have one then you might find one installed on a different PC

Sounds like a GPU issue.

 

I would start with the simple things.

 

Check the cable going from GPU to monitor.

Try a different connection, if ur using HDMI , try DP, or DVI if it has one

 

Reseat the GPU

 

Check the GPU power cables on both the GPU end and PSU end

 

if all that fails...

If u have a onboard GPU, remove your graphics card and plug the monitor into the motherboard

Alright, I will try that.

 

Sorry but, can you tell me how?

Where do I put the speakers on the motherboard, anything that I should keep in mind while doing that?

The pins are usually located along with all the front panel pins

 

Which ones specifically will depend on ur motherboard, ull need to check ur manual to be sure. U can also look at the motherboard itself sometimes they have it printed next to the pins.

 

Should look similar to this
