Everyday PC starts up without any visual indicators, lacks KB/M power, and shows no Ethernet status light.
Yesterday I came back home and my PC started up without any display signal. The keyboard and mouse didn't receive power, the speaker lights were on and functioning for Bluetooth, the fans were running, the HDD was spinning, but the Ethernet light was off. There was no beep sound, except for a single beep before it entered POST mode.
I checked the RAM and found no problems there. However, I couldn't test the PSU, motherboard, GPU, or CPU because I don’t have spare parts. I’m considering purchasing a PSU now, but I’m on a budget and might opt for a C-tier model like the 1stplayer DK Premium.
I’m betting the issue is with the PSU, though I haven’t bought a new one yet. My current specs are:
- CPU: i5 10400f
- GPU: GTX 1060 3GB single fan (inno3d)
- PSU: Corsair 550W (orange label VS550?)
- Motherboard: Gigabyte H510M S2H
- RAM: 32GB at 2666mhz (2x16GB)
I’m wondering if the motherboard could be damaged. If I have time, I might visit a computer store to get help, but part of me feels it’s unnecessary given the traffic. Thanks!
PSU : Corsair 550W, I haven't found it yet, I'll check when I get home. It seems to be an orange label PSU / VS550.
How recent is the PSU in your system?
You may want to look for a well-made PSU to borrow or not buy, and see if that helps with your problem.
Where are you located? Which site do you prefer for buying, and how much have you set aside for your PSU purchase?
I'm not sure about the PSU age for this one, but I can't get a power supply right now. I'll check it at a store later today—they're giving free advice. I'm located in Indonesia and have $45 USD set aside for the power supply.
