Turned on my computer this morning with no peripherals working. After getting it to work and then failing multiple times, I'm out of solutions.

Hi all.

Last night I was on my PC and shut it off normally before I went to bed. When I went to turn it on this morning, the computer failed to start. Usually when I turn on the computer the lights on my keyboard and mouse turn on briefly after a second or two. However now they turn on for a second or two as soon as I press the power button. The monitor would usually then display a splash screen however now it doesn't turn on at all.

I decided to restart it, and it worked for about 30 minutes. At this point it didn't bluescreen, but had columns of brown all the way down. The audio from the video I was watching continued for about 4 seconds before it stopped playing. I powered off the computer by holding the power button.

I restarted a few times and the computer never booted normally. I opened the side panel and saw that all the fans were working. I took the ram out and put it back in again, turned it on, and it worked again for about another 30 minutes, until it crashed again but with red columns this time.

After restarting and replacing the ram it still wouldn't start, and I'm not sure what else to do. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Not sure if this means anything but when the computer is working normally, to turn it off via the power button I have to hold it down for a few seconds, which is normal. However now I only have to press it and it turns off immediately. I don't have a speaker plugged into my motherboard but I can buy one if you guys think it would help.

certain keys on my keyboard dont work when "cold"

Hi guys, i have a Lenovo Y520-15IKBN (80WK) and certain keys on the keyboard don't work (e,g,h,8,9,Fn...) but only when the weather is cold. for example in the winter it used to work after certain amount of time when i first boot the laptop and stops working when i stop using it for a while, but now that the weather is hot it works just fine except for the first couple of minutes or when its colder. of course i do realise that it has nothing to do with the outside weather but with the temperature of the computer itself. can someone explain to me why this is happening and how it should be fixed as i cannot take it to the tech service until july even though it's still under warranty because i need it for school. ps: an external keyboard works fine.

Old PC with a Foxconn n15235 motherboard needs drivers! Help!!

So my Pc corrupted and I had to fresh install windows on it, but now its missing 3 drivers and one of them is for the Ethernet controller! I've tried searching everywhere for the windows 7 drivers but all I seem to find are some dodgey programs saying they will install it for me. Problem is without the ethernet driver I can't bloody connect to the internet. I've been using a USB to try get some drivers on there, but they just end up being useless programmes . I'm also a bit of a noob at these things, I don't understand where to find the names of things in my PC, I've opened it up but I don't understand whats significant and what isnt. If someone has the drivers and can teach me how to install them I'd be very appreciative! Submitted April 29, 2018 at 02:47PM by darrilsteady https://ift.tt/2r76xMZ
