Thread: help me

when i switch on cpu.. my cpu fan starts for a while and stops in 10-20 sec....no display in monitor......what could be the problem

It can point to various problems including a faulty motherboard, corrupt BIOS and so many more.
Did you add new hardware? Try changing the RAM sticks.
More questions after feedback.

Check your SMPS.

Check the fan mounted on the CPU. I have experienced the same when the fan gets faulty. The processor overheats and the system is turned off automatically to prevent further damage..

thanx....it worked...but now as soon as system starts and after logging in its getting restarted...some times system is hanging....some times its getting restarted at boot only

Remove all the Hardware and install it again and check for the Thermal Paste in the CPU, is it less or high..
If you went into the os means check for the CPU temperature and post it here with the CPU model number..
Overheating may also be the cause in restarting to prevent the CPU damage..

If you have 2 RAM stick, use one RAM at a time and check if it stable or not.

what is thermal paste......
my cpu is assembled one
processor temp 69 c
internal temp 45 c
remote temp 45 c
fan speed 3720

what would be normal processor temp?

Thermal paste is the paste which is applied between the processor and the CPU fan. It facilitates heat conduction between the two.
Are the temparatures you have mentioned during load times or at startup? Please mention your chipset and te processor.

oh..thanx...thermal paste is very less[we can almost no paste just traces]....where can we get thermal paste..

temperatures at startup bias...and after startup windows is restarting

intel pentiumd dual core processor..
intel 101ggc2 motherboard

I don't like your CPU temparature of 69 C. You can get thermal paste from your local CPU dealer or at ebay or newegg. Arctic silver thermal paste are the most preferred and the most effective.
P.S : This heating problem can also be due to the CPU fan. Please get it checked at a local authorized Intel dealer. But before that try applying the thermal paste.

using lot of thermal paste also will lead to shutdown of system without any warning..
Call a service eng and tell him the problem, as you dont much about cpu, you may handle it in the wrong way and may even damage the cpu pins or the sockets..

i think its a cooler issue and call a service guy to have a look at it, dont try removing the cooler if you dono what are doing..

No dude nothing like that....service engineers have no clue how to do it(applying thermal paste)... Its a very easy process....as to how to remove the cooler, go to youtube and look for videos...those coolers use push pins which are easy to install and remove.

There are no hardwares available on torrents so do it safely and with only proper understanding...

i did not understand bro... ?

i meant that if he is not confident of what he maybe going to do, because there is no hardware available on the internet...

You can try changing your fan, which should not be too expensive.

after you on the computer, does your smps stop after a while, if so.......

it happen with my brother also, he change his smps and started working.
I would suggest you change the smps or borrow from others to try first.
all the best.
