WAT?

[LazyPigeon]

I am having a problem, when i turn on my pc all of the fans start spinning but the light under the power button starts blinking red and the monitor doesn't give out any signal. What do i do? And when i turn on my pc is the thermal paste supposed to melt? I just checked the cpu and thats what i saw!

Have you plugged in both power cables from your power supply into your motherboard? There should be a 24pin and either a 4 or 8 pin.

How can it even blink red? That's usually just a one Color LED

Second WHY AND HOW AND WTF can you see the thermal paste?!?!?!?!

And ofc it's supposed to melt but not like that.

I had an issue like this yesterday and for some reason taking out my RAM and putting it back in fixed the issue.

w8 w8 w8, you took the cooler off and then (WITHOUT A COOLER) started up the PC? And then you watched the thermal paste melt?

That didnt help... Could a part be dead? When i turn it on the 4 lights next to ram sticks turn on 2 green 2 orange and then all fans start spinning but no response on the monitos!

mkay. that's good at least lol.

You should try reseating the CPU (even if it's in perfectly, sometimes that shit happens),

reseat ram, power connectors and everything. Also clear the CMOS

 

Does the PSU have enough power? And can you easily swap parts for testing for example with Hardware from a friend?

None of my friends are computer geeks and definetly couldnt get cheap parts fast as i am only 12 but i will try reseating the cpu, the ram and the rest!

What Hardware are you using anyways? That'd be good to know kinda.
