Pc won't start.

Lonac

Hi everyone!

 

As the title says my 3 months old pc won't start anymore. It worked fine for 2 minutes today until it just shut down just like the power was cut off. Can't turn it on anymore.

Now I have read the guidelines about this issue on this forum and it still didn't help me so here goes.

 

The only things I have currently in my pc (because I removed everything else)

 

i7-7700k 

Gigabyte GA-Z270x-Ultra Gaming

NZXT H440

 

When I try to start it only 1 led (CPU I think) blinks for a moment and nothing happens. If I try to turn it on a second time the led won't blink again. I need to unplug the powercord and wait for 10 seconds if I want to see that led blink again.

Sorry for the potato quality. What you are looking at are the led indicators of these things:

VGA      CPU 

BOOT   DRAM

 

And the (CPU?) led flicks on and off. 

 

What I've already tried:

Checking if it's the psu - it's not. It works fine when I hook it to another computer. If I try a different psu the problem still persists

Removing all fans and connectors from the motherboard.

Removing the CPU and running it without it

Resetting CMOS

Checking the manual about troubleshooting, there is nothing about it.

Replacing/Reslot the ram

 

If anyone has any idea what it might be, thanks in advance!

Have you misconnected CPU and GPU cable? They might look the same but you HAVE to connect the one that has "CPU" written on it to the CPU connector.

The correct cable was already connected to the right connector

Have you tried booting without your RAM or tried different stick(s) in different slot(s)

Do you have warranty on your components? Use it if you still have it

Did you order your components online or from a shop close to you?

Online. I can use the warranty. It's just a huge hassle because the store where I got it from is bankrupt. I first want to check out my options

okay but if the parts are name brands the warranty should still work just call support they can be really nice.

Hmm, i guess you should contact them and tell them all about your problem. If they can't tell what component makes the problem then you have to ship both cpu and motherboard. If you don't want to have business with all that shit then you can bring your pc to a local repair place, they can troubleshoot it and say what is making the problem but they will charge some money for it.
