  • hey man my pc turns on normally but it doesnt detect me anything mouse,keyboard,monitor,could this be a PSU problem ?even the dvd drive doesnt eject

  • @yandykun i dont think this is the PSU's fault. your computer is on, but not detecting any devices. Check your connections

  • i think i have a failed psu,the pc doesn't turn on,sometimes when i turn it on the fans works for seconds and stops(not the one inside the psu case) is it a psu issue?

  • @pcworld88 most likely psu

  • @xregulatorx Is it necessary to buy a new one of the same brand,or it doesn't matter?

  • @pcworld88 brands don't matter. Stick with reputable brands such as antec corsair thermaltake etc etc

  • @DroodleTech Look closely at the PSU. That's generic no-name crap. While I understand that this is a foolish move (having lots of shit connected to a shit power supply), you have to differentiate between good and bad..

  • Not an example of a bad PSU,this an example of an unexperienced user combining bad ass graphics cards,high performance fans,and case lighting with a PSU that cant handle it.

  • @xregulatorx whats a psu?

  • @yandykun Oh, I'm sorry! Then, you replaced the PSU or the MB, or both?

    I'd like to know ;-)

  • @mathieuemi666 thank you, i already replaced it.

  • @yandykun Looks like a motherboard-related problem.

  • Mine just outright blew up.

  • @yandykun Motherboard problem dude

  • @NOXXism to be completely honest, the only reason i never use one is because i buy most of my mobos second hand and the I/O shield usually gets left in the sellers case. :/

    its not really a choice \o/

  • @MGazT Well the shield was made to fulfill a purpose and I will always use it because whenever possible
