No power to peripherals

Go to solution Solved by dragoon20005,

sounds like the mobo has given up

I seem to be having trouble with an older computer. The system will start up but the monitor will not display any information. Additionally, all other peripherals connected to the back I/O panel are not powered. This includes mouse, keyboard, Ethernet, etc.

 

 

At first I thought the monitor may have finally given out since its as old if not older than this system. I replaced the monitor with an alternate VGA monitor which resulted in the same scenario. There does seem to be a connection but all I receive is a black screen.

 

The keyboard and mouse both receive no power from their respective ports. Connecting them to different back I/O ports results in no change. Due to the setup I am unable to migrate the cables to the front panel of the system to test the keyboard/mouse there. Nor do I have an extension cable currently available.

 

I have tested the system by removing RAM from 4 modules down to 1. All resulted in the same scenario as described.

 

Note: I am in no rush for an answer as I will have limited time with this system today. Any suggestions made will be tested once I have time with the machine later today or tomorrow. I will relay any new information that becomes available during testing.

 

Thank You for your time!

Budget? Uses? Currency? Location? Operating System? Peripherals? Monitor? Use PCPartPicker wherever possible.
