Your computer fails to start after an incident.
Hello everyone, today I played a game with mods on my PC and suddenly it crashed without a blue screen. When I tried to restart, the computer didn’t respond at all. I initially thought something was damaged, but after a BIOS flashback, everything seemed to power up (the fans spinning). The issue remains—I can’t get it to boot correctly. My setup includes: Asus Prime B450 Mk2 board, AMD Ryzen 5600 CPU, Zotac RTX 3060 Ti graphics card, two 8 GB 3200 MHz DDR4 RAM sticks, and a Corsair carbide Spec Delta 650W PSU. I followed the flashback guide from the Asus tutorial video, did a CMOS restart by replacing the battery as shown in the linked video, and tested with both the latest and second-latest BIOS versions. Still, no display signal appears. I also unplugged all USB devices and switched HDMI cables without success. My PC has been stable for about a year; nothing changed recently. The problem began after the crash. Thank you for your assistance! Edited April 25, 2023 by Daphne97
Hi there, Daphne. Hope your workday was great. I faced a similar issue a few years ago and ended up re-mounting the CPU—boom, it fully booted. I’d recommend trying a CPU remount and repaste, using just the essential paste. Are the motherboard lights still working?
I attempted to update the BIOS with the flashback feature again, but no changes appeared. A subsequent CMOS reset resolved the issue, and my mouse stopped working as expected. It seems I should consider sending it in for repairs. Thank you all for your assistance!
Edit: For those who saw this on Google, my graphics card sadly stopped functioning… I hope yours remains in good shape. Good luck with the warranty. Edited May 4, 2023 by Daphne97 Updated the fix.
