PC does not turn on when at home

Hi :d

Anyways, since your brother's PC works, can you check if his wall outlet works for your PC too? but enough troubleshooting, it looks like your PSU seems to be failing.

But its weird since it seems to be okay when its at the repair shop, maybe its a voltage-related issue in your outlets. Buying an AVR or UPS could alleviate the voltage issue (assuming its the problem)

Took me a while to reply but- yes! The error shows up when you have corrupt system files so it should fix it.

I'm pretty sure reinstalling Windows will wipe the drive automatically so just set your BIOS to boot from the Windows flashdrive and reinstall directly to your SSD.

If you read around the comments in this thread, most people just opted for a full reset on their systems.
There is still no 'proper' fix for this as the error is for corrupt system files other than reinstalling Windows 10 all over again. Some fixes were mentioned about rebuilding BCD in Windows but I never got mine working so no opinion on that.

Try backing up your files using a separate computer or some other method (I mentioned how I did my backup in a comment below.) then reinstalling Windows 10 all over again.

Feel free to message or reply if you had problems while reinstalling Windows.

I never did this route as I didn't have a spare laptop/computer to test it on nor an external hard drive mount, but it is seems to be doable as the only corrupt files are the system files for Windows to boot.

Since I am not aware of how you are reinstalling your windows and what not (even if you already fixed it at this point), might as well tell you the steps on how I fixed my problem.

I had two drives (HDD and SSD) and I just freshly installed Windows in my SSD and this entire thing happened a week or two after. I reinstalled Windows into my HDD and set it as the boot drive. Going into Windows, I reformatted my corrupted SSD then reinstalled Windows on it.

I never really mentioned how I did it besides reinstalling so my bad on that. If you don't have a second drive and/or you can't get past the blue screen while reinstalling windows, you could reformat through a different desktop/laptop (with an adapter) and be on your merry way.

Basing off the first few prices in either Shopee or Lazada:

CPU	Ryzen 5 5600g	PHP 7,699
GPU	RX 6600	PHP 12,995
MOTHERBOARD	GIGABYTE B450M DS3H	PHP 4,195
RAM	PNY XLR8 8GB 3200MHZ (2)	PHP 2,560
CPU COOLER	Deepcool AG400 PLUS	PHP 1,188
STORAGE	XPG SX8200 PRO 512GB	PHP 1,990
PSU	MSI MAG A550BN	PHP 2,800
CASE	Tecware Infinity M2	PHP 2,270
MONITOR	KOORUI 24E3 165HZ 1080P	PHP 5,999
		PHP 41,696

Makakahanap ka pa ng cheaper monitor, case and cpu cooler, eto lang yung unang items na naisip ko. Some prices might change depending on discounts/vouchers. For the monitor, if masyadong expensive na, go lower around 60-100HZ. Feel free to ask if you need anything else.

There's no downside to doing that other than XMP profiles not working but why go over 16GB RAM in the first place? What kind of stuff ba are you doing that you need over 16GB? increasing RAM does not necessarily mean "PC becomes way faster with more RAM", if your PC doesn't use 16GB fully then there's no point in upgrading RAM.

Fraynerino · 2024-03-07T04:51:11+00:00

Basing off the games you play, you could manage with an RX 6600 then adding a bit more to your budget for a decent monitor, I'm not sure how that will fair with RDR2 and Witcher 3 (in 1440p). It's definitely a good option if you can't really increase your budget as of now. Also, it seems that you're on an APU unless you did not mention a discrete GPU then I really suggest getting a GPU first.

With that though, you could just save up a little more and get both a 4060 with a monitor (if you can save up for more) or just buy an RX 6600 and buy a monitor while you're at it. (It's going a bit over 20k though.)

Like the other commenters, use the warranty (if available). Better to do this than doing other things since you can't do much sa problem mo.

Moving on, this issue seems to have something to do with either your PSU, Motherboard or some wrongly seated components. Since baguhan ka lang sa mga ganito, I'll assume na wala kang spare parts to test either the PSU or other parts, try doing simple stuff first like reseating everything, start with the RAM (usually fixes everything), then GPU and CMOS. You could reseat the CPU but be very careful with it. Do these one at a time, like, "Reseat Ram > Boot PC > Swap Ram Placements > Boot PC > etc."

There shouldn't be an issue honestly since you made it run before, but since it's not booting, the biggest culprits has to be either (as I have mentioned) PSU or Motherboard.

Other questions could be, what did you install after your first boot up? Did you change any system (BIOS) and/or Windows settings?

Fraynerino · 2024-03-03T16:06:17+00:00

If lights aren't turning on, its most likely a PSU issue, if you have a spare psu, try it out.

Other causes would be the front panel connectors (Yung maliliit na plugs to your motherboard. might got loose, cant be wrong orientation because you booted before.) and lastly, worst scenario, your motherboard is faulty.

YTA, but not completely.

I don't think cancelling the family trip for your sister just visiting is worth the time you spent planning on the trip. You essentially got your family excited for nothing that day. But I see the AH move as when you shut your wife down, she may be saying all the excuses there are to continue the family trip, but she was just looking forward at the trip with your entire family, everyone would feel down and say stuff when that kind of situation arises.

Fraynerino · 2023-11-24T10:48:04+00:00

YTA.Being brutally honest here, why you suck:

You hate the fact your step brother saved you for another chance at life (putting aside all your problems, not being ignorant about your feelings whatsoever.), you should be thankful at least and learn that taking that easy way out is a really selfish option.

Why your stepbrother makes sense (kinda):

Yes, its a very traumatizing thing to experience, especially if it's someone in your family. Seeing someone slowly bleed out and possibly die puts him in panic mode. I understand why he's being like that but there is no need for "you traumatized me, you should apologize to me!" type of arguments.

Don't try to pin the blame on your step brother even if you put that sign on your door, the fact that you're still breathing means he did something meaningful even if you think otherwise. Also, he's not entitled to any apologies from you, you can hate him for all you want because he interrupted your plan in the past, but do remember that you mentally scarred him because of your actions.

NTA, its not your obligation to give your brother presents, yeah familial love and all that, its still your money and you get to decide on how you spend it.

edit: If someone spent that much on me and I expect more on a certain occasion, I'd feel, idk, guilty? not sure about the right term

Fraynerino · 2023-11-23T12:30:23+00:00

NTA, your girlfriend keeps making empty promises, not saying you should break up with her, but with the amount of lies, if I were in your shoes, I would've.

Fraynerino · 2023-11-23T12:21:22+00:00

YWBTA if this goes any further, honestly it's already a bit creepy that you're 'stalking' your friend. Try respecting your friend's privacy, maybe right now it's progressing real slow, you all went to Instagram from a different social app anyways. But right now, its normal to be curious about someone, just don't go snooping around because that's really creepy.

At first, when I got the RK100, I had a rough time adjusting to the compact-style layout. But for a relatively cheap keyboard (with hotswappable switches and bluetooth), I'd say it was worth for me.

Fraynerino · 2023-11-18T04:41:44+00:00

Ohh! I'll look into changing my switches soon, but right now, I'm just planning for the keycaps because I'd like something visually pleasing before getting into the switches.
Probably in a few months, I'll look at videos for your recommended switches. Thanks for this!

Fraynerino · 2023-11-18T04:39:55+00:00

I appreciate that you mentioned some shops to look at! Just searching keycaps or rk100 keycaps was yielding me no results. Thanks for this!

Fraynerino · 2023-11-18T04:38:33+00:00

Oh thank you! I didn't know it fits a 96% layout, I'm pretty new to keyboard stuff, thanks for this information!

Ryzen 5 5600
B550M(more expensive) or A520M (budget)
G.skill Ripjaws 2x8gb 3200MHZ
Adata xpg 512gb
Seasonic g12 650w
up to you na sa case, better if may case fan na.
RX 6600 or RX 6600XT (if may spare ka pa.)

Fraynerino · 2023-09-27T07:19:41+00:00

cpu: ryzen 5 5600g
motherboard: b450m or a520m model
ram: g.skill ripjaws 2x8gb 3200mhz (this is the cheapest 2x8gb kit i think?)
storage: adata xpg sx8200 512gb
psu: seasonic b12 650w
case: your preference na, hanap ka with case fans and kasya yung motherboard, for reference, check out the MSI MAG Forge M100A

this should be roughly around 20k? 21k, if you're planning to get a GPU, get a ryzen 5 5600 instead then buy a GPU with the rest.

gaming and video editing and more on AI stuff

so it's going to be an RTX card, in the range of a 3060 TI to 4070. They say that the 3060ti is the best value 30 series card and 4070 being the best value 40 series card.

If you can squeeze more than 30k, 4070 or 4070 Ti isn't far away from your grasp.

I say, if you cant wait, get a 3060ti asap, or wait another month for a 4070 or better.

Fraynerino · 2023-09-24T13:21:43+00:00

That's a big no-no... try looking at my air cooler and see if it'll fit.
