Hi everyone,
My brother's computer is bugging out!!! It all started when it began
running sluggish, we upgraded the memory,it didn't resolve the
sluggishness so I reinstalled WinXP Pro. From there it was giving us a
problem booting up, so I tried reinstalling Win XP Pro many times and
it installed but when the computer reboots it would give out errors on
the Blue Scree of Death. After numerous reinstalls it booted fine
twice, now the computer comes on but no action from the system, the
hard drives are not spinning nor is the monitor coming on.
His system is :
JustPC case jpc747p
PC Chips MB M-960G, Power suppy 350-400
Intel Celeron D 2.66
Corsair D400 1gb memory x2
Radeon 9550 video card-256mb
Primary HD- Maxtor 200 Gb 6L200R0
Slave HD- Maxtor 200 Gb 6L200R0
Primary CD- Ukn Brand Cd Burner
Slave CD- Pioneer DVD Burner
Standard Floppy drive

Details on finding the problem would be appriciated!!! We are at a
lost for finding a solution!!!
Thanks!!!!

It seems possible that that underpowered PSU is failing and casuing the
symptoms you describe. I would first thing try replacing the PSU, and use a
good quality HIGHER output unit.

Yeah. Replace if needed. You can also try to run just your Master HDD
and your primary CD drive.
See if your PSU can handle at least that load. If not, then you might
have more going on then just a weak PSU.

The first rule of Troubleshooting:

If you change something and your computer doesn't work, undo what you've
done.

Proceed from there.
