Hi,
Before anything I want to say that, yes, I searched for problem and I found people in a similar situation before posting this. And sorry for any language mistakes.
My problem is that my computer turns on but doesn’t make any sound (it usually does)and shows no image. I already switched the battery, cleared CMOS, tried other RAM sticks on every slot, video card (basically the hardware in the pc i’m using to write this). Then you might say: “Ok then it’s fried… buy another one.” 🙂 BUT it has a particularity… If I let it disconnected from electricity, say for 1/2 days, when I connect everything again the PC works like nothing ever happened. Then I put my Hiren’s Boot CD to test it and IT PASSES IN EVERY TEST. The thing is that when I reboot, if not the first at the second time it fails again…
I’m frustrated! Please, any help?
EDIT: Sorry guys I forgot to mention one thing (Maybe a very important one). When it boots well this message appears: “Checksum error – Press F1 to continue” and pressing F1 everything runs smoothly. Is a corrupted BIOS the reason for the problem?
PROBLEM SOLVED
REASON: Motherboard overheating.
SOLUTION: I followed dpalsen suggestion and put a big fan next to the motherboard. Everything runs smoothly now!
Thanks for all replies!
