Motherboard problems

Oct 14, 2008

- You said the cpu was very hot & that you tried to reseat it. The cpu is like the heart of your pc & if it's not running properly then you will have very irratical behavior. Does your pc shut down after a min. or so? It's a safety feature to try to keep the mother board from frying. I'm not positive but I would say that if the processor or mother board is having problems then your hardware will be affected. The green light on the mother board will stay on even if the board is fried. It just shows that there is power going to it. The beeps you can pretty much disregard because pc's may not have the system speaker installed or it doesn't work leaving beeps unheard. So try to learn to not base much on them. They are convient tho! It can also be *********** board mike54. If possible try to swap out cpu first then mother board. If cpu doesn't help it's most likely *********** board.
Good luck & please try to let me know.
