Hi.
Well today I had a setback. To be fair the last couple of weeks when powering up the PC all the fans started running like the clappers for 20 seconds or so and it bleeped continuously. After that time it booted up fine. Sadly today no such luck, the fans just ran and ran, no POST or boot. I checked all that I could to no avail.
A last ditch attempt and I pulled the graphics card. On powering up (previously it went mad as soon as mains was applied) all was well. I then refitted the card and was back to square one.
The first card I was given from Peter had a problem with the Green output then did the same as this one I got from eBay, so I'm beginning to think my PC may have some fault, no idea where to even start.
So I'll look out for another S/H PC then proceed.
