I think I might have thrown something like this out here before but I think I'll give it another try . The past two to three weeks I've gotten a BSOD indicating a hardware failure . I would reboot and all would be fine . the past week or so the mouse(USB) would quit , a reboot would cure the problem . Then the keyboard would not work and on rebooting the computer all would be fine . Now this morning the computer would not even power on(no power light or harddrive light). All cords plugged in and even tried in different recepticles . A friend of mine thinks it is probably a bad PSU verses a MOBO in that various hardware are not booting up and he thinks that the power supply is slowly giving way and not powering on the various components and will eventually quit all together . The mobo lights are on inside the case when the the PC is off but isn't that a result of just having the PC plugged into AC ? I quess I'm tring to talk myself into thinking it's the PSU vs the mobo:icon_lol: Would a bad mobo prevent the PC from powering on (no lights or nothing? ) A PSU would be alot easier to change than a mobo and a hell of alot cheeper ?:banghead: hey_moe I feel your pain:banghead: These PC's are agravating SOB's and a big piece of s--t:banghead: Anyone want to share your bad PSU failures , especially the symptoms.
