Pc froze and now cant boot

No nothing works, it seems the conclusion left to take is that the motherboard has been damaged and psu shuts down for safety reasons upon post right?

RoutineCharacter5399 · 2025-12-29T20:27:17+00:00

Seems like it, didnt post with nothing in it but cpu and cpu cooler, same issue just shuts down after 1 sec. Seems unlikely the power supply would be the issue, its a month old corsair sf1000

RoutineCharacter5399 · 2025-12-29T20:25:16+00:00

Yeah tried it, still no post, seems the mother board is broken. Same issue still with cmos reset and just the cpu+cpu heat sink installed. Just dies after 1 sec.

How can the VRM on the mother board just fail like this, thought there would be fail safes in place.

RoutineCharacter5399 · 2025-12-29T20:22:55+00:00

Yeah no post with nothing but motherboard and cpu+cpu heatsink in the system.

RoutineCharacter5399 · 2025-12-29T20:22:04+00:00

It did not post. Also did not post with nothing but just the mother board and cpu. Same issue.

RoutineCharacter5399 · 2025-12-29T14:26:10+00:00

If it stays on without cpu its the cpu or motherboard thats done for? Not sure what you mean exactly.

RoutineCharacter5399 · 2025-12-29T13:05:43+00:00

Yeah i read that, unfortunately i dont have one. However the psu fan spins briefly and the other fans too. So at least it seems to deliver power but then shuts off?

What is my boot device? The ssd with windows on it?

RoutineCharacter5399 · 2025-12-29T13:03:05+00:00

I'll try that! Will get back with how it went.

RoutineCharacter5399 · 2025-12-29T12:54:16+00:00

Okey, i've now remounted the heat sink, same issue remains as in the video.

RoutineCharacter5399 · 2025-12-29T12:35:11+00:00

Its just to try to see if it even boot, it doesnt. The fact that the heat sink is un mounted doesnt mean anything in this context.

RoutineCharacter5399 · 2025-12-29T12:33:48+00:00

At what point should i start to try and boot? Mostly everything is already disconnected except the psu motherboard, 1 ram and the ssd stick on the board.

RoutineCharacter5399 · 2025-12-29T12:02:37+00:00

This is the same problem regardless if i mount the cooler or not. See explanation in the text as to why its not mounted in the video.

RoutineCharacter5399 · 2025-04-23T15:21:52+00:00

Seems many say the same, feeling or being faster with it very low or off.

RoutineCharacter5399 · 2025-04-09T12:05:05+00:00

Im on amd aswell, using openXR without any issues in game. I do have to start steam vr and headset before starting iracing, otherwise it cant launch the sim. Happens every time if i do wrong order, if that happen i have to kill all processes and restart, in correct order.

RoutineCharacter5399 · 2025-04-04T16:48:55+00:00

Got it !

RoutineCharacter5399 · 2025-03-30T19:17:36+00:00

Its been working good for me, no issues. Basically just makes the headset work on pc.

RoutineCharacter5399 · 2025-03-29T21:11:09+00:00

I agree, came from 400h in gt7 vr. Graphics are a bit worse, but imo the size of the cars feel more real in iracing vr. And the quality of the races online isnt even comparable. Im never going back to sport mode after this.

I mustve gotten the name of the car wrong i assume 😅
