I don’t know what’s wrong with my pc

[The_mydas]

Hello all, I just built my first pc and I’ve run into a major problem.

I downloaded windows onto my computer and I thought all was going well, until my computer crashed and then continued to crash when I tried to start up windows. It didn’t shut down if I was in bios and I managed to install windows again. I downloaded chrome and was about to download drivers for my motherboard when it crashed again and threw me right back into the loop. I don’t know what to do somebody please help!

Hey there! I personally had a similair problem, and the cause of mine were bend cpu pins. I would advise you to take out your cpu and check your socket for any bend pins (if AMD check the pins on the cpu) if there are none there is a big chanche just reseating it might help. If it doesnt u can also try a different ram config

My cpu was in ok but when I was taking it out I realised that the fan wasn’t on correctly, I’m still having the issue

Also my gpu has one fan spinning in the middle and the light and other 2 fans turn on for a bit when I try to boot

Do you happen to have any other gpu around to test it with?

[The_mydas]

I could try my brothers I guess

 

[The_mydas]

He has a 1660 super

[mrmidaski]

That would narrow down the issues, let me know if it helps

[mrmidaski]

Oh before you do that, your motherboard also has an debug display. The numbers on the top right of your motherboard. When it crashes do you get any codes?

I will, thank you so much btw

[The_mydas]

I can’t borrow my brothers right now but I think it is the gpu because I managed to get windows up and running but the second I installed the driver for the gpu it crashed

 

[mrmidaski]

Ur welcome yeah its probably the gpu than... Can u still return it?

[The_mydas]

Yeah I can, and I probably will later today (it’s 10am for me)

Update: I switched my ram from the 2nd and 4th slots to the 1st and 3rd slots and window runs okay. But when I try to update/install drivers for my gpu the pc just crashes
