Do you have the possibility to test the GPU in another machine? Perhaps you have a friend or relative that has a PC where it could work in. That would help ruling out if that is the issue.

 

If not the GPU, check power supply and cables.

 

Did you update the BIOS before or after the issue started occurring?

So my pc was working fine last night, and the days prior. This morning it wouldnt turn on. I unplug the GPU and it turns on. I have updated my bios. It has done this before but would eventually turn on. So im not sure what to do, any advice would be greatly appreciated. I am using the integrated graphics on the motherboard right now.

Updated Bios after the issue. I dont have a way right now to test the gpu alone. I am going to ask someone from work if they can.

Corsair SF750 @leclod

 

 

Also once it tries to turn on but fails. i have to unplug the power and plug it back in for it to try to start again. The fans act like they are starting up, then nothing. and it wont try again until power is reset.

Update

 

 

I tore it apart and I believe they had the PSU hooked up wrong. Or this 24 pin extension cable they had was bad. Either way i removed that and hooked things back up appropriately and its working fine.

 

Lesson learned. I should have torn it down and checked connections first and foremost.
