Hello.
Need some help. HP Pavilion A6300F when turned on will turn on the fan, and CD sounds like it is turning, but the desktop will not do anything beyond that spot. Not going to BIOS screen, not doing anything, Blank screen , and the monitor has the message on it to check the video cable if unplugged.
HD seems to not spin
Can anyone help?
Thanks.
Can you hear hard drive spinning?
Is its light active?have you checked to be sure the monitor is connected to the video card?HD light comes on for a few seconds and stop... PS light on BACK of desktop is on and GREEN, and yes... the monitor is connected, and I have checked another monitor.. no difference.
Took memory chips out, and in again, unplugged the HD and back again, no other items connected to the desktop. Took the CMOS battery out, and in again... nothing helps...
Try to start it with one RAM stick at a time.Just had the same problem with my a6300f. Was told by HP to boot without any memory and when I did not get any beeps was told that the motherboard needed to be replaced. They want $199 to replace in a system that is not even 2 years old urrrrr!If they told you to try and boot the system with no memory installed i would get a 2ND opinion before giving them any money...
