No Signal to monitor
No Signal to monitor
Hello guys, i am trying to repair a 12 year old PC that had been idle for two years. The issue started when it stopped sending a signal to the monitor after one day, while everything else worked normally. I removed the GPU and tested it on my main system—it functioned correctly with the monitor. However, I couldn’t test the RAM on my main system because it uses DDR3, whereas my motherboard is DDR4. My question is whether the old power supply might be having trouble sending a signal to the monitor, since connecting an HDMI port makes the monitor react but then turns off without showing any signal.
Motherboard: ASUS P9X79 LE, Socket-2011, KUN PC-PROD
ATX, X79, 8xDDR3, 3xG3-PCIe-x16, SLI/CFX, SATA 6Gb
Processor: Intel® Core i7-3820 Processor
Socket-LGA2011, Quad Core, 3.6GHz, 10MB, 130W
Memory: Corsair Dominator GT DDR3 1866MHz 32GB
GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 980
Storage:
1. Samsung SSD 840 Series 250GB 2.5" BULK
2. Western Digital® Desktop Green 2TB
SATA 6Gb/s, (SATA 3.0), RPM = IntelliPower, 64MB
This means that if your PSU is 750 to 800 watts, it should work properly.......................
The tiny round battery serves as the power source for the CMOS. Its age of 12 years makes it a likely candidate for being a contributing factor.
this pc had been in dust for two years. Believing it might be an old power supply after not finding any hints online, i gave up. Now i keep searching everywhere but no one mentioned the battery. All the talk was about monitors, hdmi, gpu, and psu🤣
