Hi all,

My PC suddenly shut down during use today.

Now when press power button, front fans + rear fan + CPU fan will spin briefly for a split second then stop again. Won't boot, and no beep sound. But casing power LED stays lit.

Removed both the RAM and tried 1 by 1 in different slot, no use.

Is it the mobo? Jin ma fan...

PC is 3 years old. Haiz, damn sianz. :(

Change power cable
Change power point
Take out GPU, use onboard
Pull out if theres is any SSD/HDD connected

If all else fail and no spare parts to test, visit Nigel @ #02-32.

But power LED stays lit and USB port still can charge some device...

That doesn't mean your PSU is fine. Charging device is the 5v supply. If the 12v supply is kaput, your desktop won't boot!

Ok so if 12V supply only spoilt, will the CPU fan and rear fan (connected to mobo) spin? Because now is when power on, they spin briefly and stop.

Is CPU spoilt possible? But no POST, no beep code leh...
