    After a long week of school I come home for my sister to tell me my computer will not turn on. What happened and how it happened is kinda sketchy but she told me before it broke there was a clicking noise coming from the computer? any ideas on to fix it ? I tried replacing the power plug but no luck even plugged it up in the living room and still no luck

    By the sound of what your sister described you may need to replace your motherboard. Have you tried turning it on is there any power going into the machine on to your motherboard??

    It means you need a new board and you may have faulty or incompatible ram for that motherboard.

    Go with the power supply first and test it out also if the ram beeped also u may need to get new ram.
