PC doesn't restart properly

[InsaneFPSGamer]

When I try to restart my PC, my tower stays on, but my screen goes and stays black. It says something like 'DisplayPort No Signal'. If anyone could help, that would be great. If anymore details are needed, just ask.

That power supply is dreadful - if anything were an issue - my money's on that.

What happens if you hit restart button on your PC (not in windows)

I haven't tried that. I trust you, but what does it do so I don't f*** my PC up.

You know you can power off your computer by pressing the power button on the computer right? But what if you could restart the computer with pressing the button on the computer? This is exactly what restart button does.

What I have done in the past is remove the BIOS battery on the motherboard for 30 seconds then put it back in again when I get this problem.

Don't think I'm advanced enough to do that, but thanks for the suggestion.

Alright, I'll try it. Do I press it while the screen is still on or when I've already hit restart?

Screen on ,note that this is just a test and not a solution

 

You might wanna try to take out the battery out of your motherboard for 30s and put in back in (this resets BIOS settings) as @NoctisCrytrix suggested This video shows how to do it (take out the battery and just put the same one back in, no need to replace it)

Alright, I'll try it. Just to make sure, do you mean the reset button on my front IO?

Yes, on the front IO

Maybe it is worth a try to first take battery in and out and then try of it works, if not you can test if it restarts normally if you press restart button on the front IO

Alright, I don't have an extra battery laying around AFAIK, so I'll wait till I get my hands on one.

No gosh no, you don't need an extra battery, just take it out and put THE SAME ONE back in

The lack of power in the turned off computer causes the motherboard to reset all BIOS settings to default

I put that video there just because I thought it is a good video for beginers

Oh OK, sweet. And this won't mess anything up on say my SSD and HDD? (Sorry for all these questions. I'm someone who worry's a lot.)

No, the only thing that you will have to do after this is to setup date and time, as it gets reset, don't worry after booting your pc it will ask you to run bios setup, you will have to set the time and date
