Dead CPU or motherboard
My new setup won't boot up now, it was working fine for about 2 hours, then just froze up and it won't even turn on the monitor anymore. The fans are running.
The PC continually bleeps for about 2 seconds and then pauses.
System consists of
Motherboard = Foxconn N570SM2AA
Processor = AMD 6000+
PSU = Enermax 500w
Memory = Exlir PC5300
CPU cooler = Noctua NH-U9F
I haven't got another MB or processor to try, maybe somebody could give me some idea how to rectify this :help:
-
you gotta spare PSU to try???
and what are the beeps (how many, long or short?)
-
I've got a PSU somewhere. I'll give it a go.
It's just one single beep about 2 seconds long.

It's only a couple of months old and has hardly been used since I got it, maybe I should contact Scan for a replacement.

Unless you have been pushing the memory over its given spec's then RMA it.
Might want to do a memtest86+ on the other stick to make sure.
