RE: PC keeps rebooting on startup Help Required

Hey guys managed to solve the problem :)

Turned out to be my graphics card, after closer inspection noticed it looked a bit nakered so took it out and booted up and hey presto computer appeared to boot up first time ( No monitor output but i`m sure it did).

Thanks again for everyone who helped me out.

P.s Any suggestions about a new graphics card - not needing a really high end card but a decent enough card would be nice for the odd game of half life 2.

Cheers

RE: PC keeps rebooting on startup Help Required

Thanks guys for your replys.

The new case I recieved didnt have a new PSU so that could still be the fault.

I think you guys might be right about the fracture in the motherboard as it does appear needing to be heated up first before it works.

So would you guys suggest changing the motherboard or the PSU first to try and locate the fault?

PC keeps rebooting on startup Help Required

Hey guys wonder if you could help me out. My computer over the last few weeks has started to reboot itself on startup.

Everytime i start up the computer it can take up to 5 reboots to finally boot up into windows. It normally goes a bit futher in the booting sequence each time before automatically restarting the computer. Once finally started the computer is nearly always stable.

I recently changed the computer case to a more spacious case with more fans as the previous case was prone to overheating. The problem still occurs in the new case.

I have a suspicion that the overheating over the year has caused problems with either the PSU or the CPU.

Have you guys experienced any similar problems or suggest something that might fix this problem.

Cheers
