Hey!

 

My dads computer has been having some issues lately. When his PC is running it is performing just as expected. However, whenever it goes to sleep mode / you turn it off, it usually refuses to boot back up for atleast a day. 

I have found that whenever the PC does not turn on, the Motherboard lights are on, but the top and back fans do not spin, same goes for the CPU fan. 

Sadly I do not have the equipment to test, lets say, another PSU and all the repair shops he has been to say its the mobo and he needs a new PC.

 

Anyone else familiar with issues like this? It just seems odd that the PC won't turn on for an entire day before working ''normally'' again.

 

If you need any further information from me, please let me know!

 

Kind regards,

Daniël

1) Check with another working PSU

2) Check for POST beeps you may need to connect a 4pin / 2pin speaker onto your motherboard. This normally indicates the error code (as it beeps) if you do not get any beeps that normally a sign the CPU or Motherboard are faulty.

3) Remove the RAM modules to see if it posts
