Pc not booting

Hi,

 

I have recently been having issues with my pc where it was going to BIOS and asked me to setup before it would boot. The time and date was wrong so I decided (with advice of other users in this forum) to buy a new battery for my motherboard. I turned the pc on when I got in from work today and it wouldn’t display anything on my monitors (both via graphics card and motherboard) and was still doing the same after I replaced the battery. (I replaced the battery after the pc wouldn’t boot). The pc still won’t boot at all after the new battery has been installed. Anyone have any ideas what it could be?

 

thanks

I've seen PC's being "stuck" in they can't POST but they do power on (fans spinning but no picture on screen/POST) where starting the PC's without the CMOS battery installed makes the PC POST again. Then after that, shutdown PC normally. Reinstall CMOS battery. Start PC, and fixed.

This seems to have worked somehow but I’m still having the issue where my pc shows this screen on boot up

Have you tried entering the BIOS from here? If you can enter the BIOS, remember to enable XMP again. And if it tells you to re-enter date and time, do that. 

And I'm glad to see you were able to POST. I have no clue on how this works sometimes. I'd love to know. And sorry about the late reply; I went to bed right after I my first comment.
