    Hey everyone, My PC won't boot up and i know for a fact its not the RAM or Poower Supply.
    at first i bought a 500W psu thinking that is what was wrong. installed it and nada, check all the cables and they're all plugged in. the RAM is seated correctly and works fine on another computer. the computer stop working a while ago, then started to work then stopped again. the farthest i can get now is getting the lights on, the psu fan starts to spin but then dies out and the computer just stops. wondering wtf is wrong with my comp.
    thnx.

    disconnect all cables to drives. remove all cards & ram except for videocard & 1 stick of ram, reseat those 2. clear the cmos as have found that to work sometimes on stubborn systems. check the silver flat topped cans on the motherboard which are capacitors that they are not domed or leaking.
