| 796734 | 2009-07-31 00:18:00 | Desktop pc won't startup after switching cases: All cords are secured and in correct place I replaced my PSU less than 4 month ago, so its highly likely the problem in this case When moving the mobo some capacitors may have been damaged/bent. And added pressure may have damaged some components Red LED light on case shows up when power is on, but when you turn the AC button on it stays red and doesn't turn on The 2-pin power may be in the wrong placement. Theres 3 2-pin cords and 2 1-pin Does it go Red White(2), Blue White(2) Orange white(2), Green (1), White(1)? Plox help |

| 796735 | 2009-07-31 01:20:00 | Could be some traces shorting on studs under the mobo. The arrangement of your header depends on the mobo. Look closely at the pcb and see if it says 'PWR' under any of the pins. | sammo450 (13626) | ||
| 796736 | 2009-07-31 01:41:00 | Whats the brand/model of the mobo? | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||

| 796738 | 2009-07-31 03:09:00 | Short the power pins with a screwdriver and see if it turns on. | Blam (54) | ||
| 796739 | 2009-07-31 03:25:00 | Is this a HP / Compaq system. If it is, it can be tricky putting the mobo in another case (unless the new case) has what the original one had. Because of the connections (from the front). And also the PSU (which may or may not) fit properly in the new case. Did you take note of what wires (came off what), when you removed the mobo? | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 796740 | 2009-07-31 07:41:00 | I bought a new mobo - ASUS P5Q SE2 . Install everything correctly . It turns on for about 5-15 seconds then shut down . Gets to ASUS loading screen then shuts down . Upon bootup the CPU fan GETS REALLY LOUD . I checked the CPU fan again and the connection to the mobo seems very loose, the heatsink and fan uses 4 screws - i don't think its suited any branded cases . CPU fan not secured causing the CPU to overheat, thus PC restart itself No system fan, i've tried installing my old foxconn fan from my HP PC that has a 3-pin mobo connection but pc still restarts I/O plate is not installed because it doesnt fit properly I've also tried removing some components e . g . 2nd HDD, molex fans . Thought my 550W gigabyte PSU might not be powerful enough, but still no luck . Should i call a computer technician to help out? And how much would it cost to fix this problem . . also could you recommend services that provide technical pc help at home or in Wellington region Please help me |

| 796742 | 2009-07-31 09:03:00 | Will they replace the components i need with no futher charge? | whellington (15030) | ||
| 796743 | 2009-07-31 09:08:00 | I doubt it. They will charge you maybe $40 or so for parts and around $50 for labour. Maybe more depending on where you go. |
