If you can, swap out the processor then swap out the power supply, most likely it is the motherboard.

Remove add on pci cards & usb devices and try again.

HI,
I am sharing some general info:-
If you are change processor no problem, some point see you like after change processor any beep sound, processor more hitting.
Second check it *********** board power come or not, your display cheap more hitting or not. Check RAM proper connect, your all cable proper connection. If all things ok then may be your PC not supported processor.

Thanks..

It seem that changing the mother board was needed to confirm as there seems to be a problem related to non communication of the mother board with the CPU, RAM and sections.
Swap and confirm.

Acerpower sv wont turn on, the fan only keep spinning with no display. And no signal beeps

Good day.
Primary culprit is your motherboard and the processor. But just to be sure, check your power supply cables going to your board and the voltage. Next, to isolate the problem and the board/cpu, remove all the device (cards, memory, drives, etc.) then power on, if there still no beeps then your board is dead, no way to check for the processor unless you have a good processor.
Good luck

Hi I opened a work computer Dell GX260 to clean it out as a favour for my boss. I've removed the processor fan in the process. I then decided that I don't have the right equipment to properly clean it....

You confirm all the connectors are properly connected. Check the power supply connector and the power button connector. Remove the cpu fan connector and refix it properly. Ther is no other chance for failure.

Pc keeps shutting down when trying to power it up

Your CPU has guards, called the Power Supply Fan and the CPU fan and heat sink. If the CPU is registering as overheating thent he fan stays on and the CPU does not come on for its own protection...so either the fans are not providing enough cool air or the wrong signal is being transmitted which could mean a bad CPU.. This could be from clogged up air vents; so what you need to find out is what the tempature of your CPU is: there are two ways; if your computer is fairly new then in BIOS there is a PC Health Status Menu; it will tell you the lowest and highest temps of your CPU. Third-party software is better though as it will give you a real time tempature; find the program "hwinfo" it is freeware (don't get one where you have to pay cause you don't) and download it to your computer. Run it and it will show you anything you need to know about your computer including the temp. of your CPU..try that first and let me know what happens...good luck

2 ghz processor running at 220 mhz

Hi,

Have you tried right clicking on the desktop (opening Display Properties), clicking on Screen Saver tab, Clicking the Power button, and setting the power schemes to Home/Office Desk? If its set on laptop it will reduce the processor speed when running on battery. I have noticed that even with it plugged in that some times it will run at half processor speed. Try that out.

Have a great day,
