Default Re: Weird Startup Problemo.

Your mouse is always on? Is your computer always on?

My guess would have to be a problem with your mobo. For whatever reason it's not allowing your OS to boot.

If there is no answer to your tech question, try asking in the General Tech Support Area gamingforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=398

-OR-

If you've got a technical question for a specific game, find the tech support area for your game gamingforums.com/showpost.php?p=2536769&postcount=2

My Mouse Laser is always on, PC on or off.

It doesn't just not let the OS load, it won't let anything power up/load....except for the fans and such, it's really weird and very difficult to explain. Sorry.

That sounds like an ACPI problem. Try this: Enter sleep mode from Windows, and see if it locks up / refuses to "wake". If so, then something similar might be happening on power-up, which would indicate a faulty motherboard. Do you have a spare machine to test individual components on?

Unfortunatly not really...I will try what you said...But i'm not in the mood for testing individual parts when it is most probably the Motherboard...

It is a brand new PC, so I can replace the Motherboard.
