Answer» Windows XP pro sp3 Celeron 2.0ghz 1 stick of 512MB Ram DDR 1 stick of 256MB Ram DDR I think Board is made by Intel see Herel
I dont have model or Serial number cause the board it not in ORIGINAL case unless its on the motherboard.
So problem is that no image on MONITOR and floppy drive keeps searching for disk and i dont see the CD drives light flashing as if it was restarting. Before all this happen it work till one day it stating having blue lines down the screen or the words were like half on the screen then the rest would be on other side of screen but if you restarted it a few time it would work. Then till one time it would not fix itself then i REMOVE ram and put them back in and it worked for a little then stoped. I removed the battery and it didn't fix any thing. So thanks to anyone that can help solve problem. I see no ideas came from any one so far but i have found a Capacitor that's plague right along the side of heat sink so im thinking this is causing the problems that i have.I would test that cap. Sounds like a bad graphics card - Try a new one in the pc and see what happens.
ALSO the floppy drive accessing is perfectly normal - it is caused by windows.
What do you mean by a capacitor that is plague?
Cameron GrayThe graphic card is integrated and i tryed a graphic card but it didn't work. I don't know what its CALL i seen both way its called a capacitors bulge or capacitor plague. It means when they go bad they will usually break open the top or bulge out the top or bottom it will. Mines only bulged, never broke open.Even bulging like that means it has gone bad. If you are a steady hand you can replace it with one of the same type. If not then I suggest replacing the entire motherboard, sometimes it is better to replace than repair. Just my 2 cents worth.Does anyone know of a good place to buy capacitor the one i need is 6.3v 3300uf and Diameter 10 mmRaido Shack is my suggestion for that.
