    Computer broke down.. Again.

    Ok, this time i was just overclocking a little (because of a laggy BC2), and suddenly my graphics card poofed out, and the computer shut itself down. When I press the power button, it goes for 4 secs, and then shuts off. I have tried resetting BIOS by removing the mobo-battery and I have even switched back to my old CPU. But without succsess. I have no qlue what so ever what this might be. Ill be leaving the mobo-battery and the PS out tonight, and I hope it will be back to normal in the morning/afternoon (depends on when I wake up xD). Help much appreciated. I think I must seriously stop overclocking because of my many faults. If anyone have ANY qlue of this, please let me know.

    Ill try and set in another pair of memory right away and test that. Thanks for the reply.

    I think my mobo is broken... Usually if I have no memory inserted, it makes that beeping noise. It does not matter whenever I have the memory inserted or not. No difference at all. Whatever I do it gets the same result. I think I have to buy a new mobo... :icon_unhappy:

    I've had a similar thing happen, turned out to be a heatsink on the cpu wasn't making good contact which made the cpu overheat and shut the system down to protect itself.
