PC problem - mobo dead?

da4i's

Hi lads,
My PC has died. There is no power going through my motherboard at all.

Originally, when things started going weird, i had to continuosly push the mains plug in inside the case to get power to go through the motherboard (the main cable that gives power to the mobo) as it was going faulty. Then one day it just died completely and pushing the cable in did not work anymore.

So, it would have to be my motherboard that is blown wouldnt it??

Thanks,
Dave

what if it was ur PSU and not ur mother board.

most likely psu from the symptoms.

faulty connection to the motherboard, broken pin etc.

Nope, tried a different, BRAND NEW PSU and still no look. It has to be the motherboard... Thanks for help guys, Dave

tbh it was faulty RAM that set everything off.
I hope its the mobo...

Anyone know how to test if there is power going through the PSU?

Thanks,
