Possible motherboard issue.

[Ruptie]

I am using a prebuilt HP pavillion Desktop pc, I can't really remember the model number but it has a i7-7700 gtx 1050 8gb ram and a 1TB HDD.

So, the other day, my brother was playing apex legends with his friends, at some point he got hardware banned (he told me he doesn't know why, but I think he somehow cheated). He told me he searched online and found a "spoofer", he used it and got a BSOD (I think it spoofed the drives only), afterwards, when I tried turning on the computer, I got 2 short beeps and 2 long ones, I searched online and found a "solution" where they told me to hold down the windows + B keys while booting on the pc, but that didn't work for me.

When I boot up my pc, I get the beeps and no display output.

Online I got the answer that it is a motherboard issue, so do I have to just swap out the motherboard or can I somehow fix it without having to buy a new one, thanks.

You can try to reinsert the memory modules. One at a time.

Did you try reseating the CMOS battery yet? This can be easily caused by that.

I'm going to try that, and I'll update you in 5 mins

I don't know how to do that :P. But I'm going to try, and I'm going to update you

By reseating the ram module i got it to display something, but it didn't boot into windows but in the automatic repair instead

If this can help, the error in the BSOD was PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA

The automatic repair has been going on for about half an hour, should I turn the pc off?
