Hello, I think my motherboard might have shorted on me. Here is what happened. Last night was the last time I was on it and everything was working fine no problem. I left it on since then, and came back to it today and it was still on, didn't seem like there was a problem.
I turn on my monitor and nothing comes up, I move the mouse and notice the laser isn't on. Neither are the lights on my keyboard. So I mess with the USB a little bit and I get nothing. I get inside my computer and start testing things out and here is where I am now.
Everything powers up, my hdds are powering up, my cpu fan is working fine, the video card fan is spinning, and my fans on my case work. But here is where it gets weird, when my cd-rom drives are plugged into the motherboard they won't open. But as soon as I take off the IDE cable so its just connected to the PSU they open fine.
I tried messing with the cmos but that didn't do anything. I also plugged the speaker in to listen for any beeps but thats not working either, I'm not sure if thats because the speaker is old and possibly not working or if the motherboard possibly shorted. The thing that gets me is how would anything else recieve power like normal but just not post or anything? Anyways I hope this is enough info, so right now I am at a loss any help is appreciated.
