Hello,
I built my desktop computer awhile ago, and I just came back from a week of being out of town. I turned it off before i left and when i came back I turned it in to start playing some games and when i came back into the room i noticed my screen was still black and my keyboard and mouse weren't lit up either. It looks like everything else in the tower comes on i hear all the fans start spinning like normal, and i have switched plug ins and such and still nothing i plug into my computer works. any and all help would be great please?!

Hi,

Open the cabinet --> Remove the RAM from the slot ---> clean it and place it back

properly or try different slot.

Check your RAM also.

If you are using Video card, remove it and place it back properly.
i did this and my monitor came on but that is it and it came up with a warning saying something about previous overclocking performance being cancled or something but i have not overclocked anything on my computer and it says to push any button to enter setup but my keyboard and mouse are still not working. i tried moving the USB pluggins around and i know they are getting power because the lock lights on the keyboard flashed once and then nothing does this mean my keyboard is dead or something?
