Sorry fro asking a question you all probably get a lot. I tried searching threads, but all had some small difference in problems than mine has. I had a power outage at some point & my PC won't work properly now. Here are the specifics:
-Sony Vaio pcv-rs520
-the computer was in standby mode when it happened
-hardware seems to power up when I hit power button(fans run, hard drive seems to at least spin or whatever HD's are supposed initially do. no clicking from HD either)
-I cannot even get any type of load screen to come up at all. It is black from the start & stays that way. The only time I get anything onscreen is when I hard kill the PC and it gives the "no input" message so the screen does function I assume.
-The beep I normally hear when I start the computer does not happen
-I tried plugging the PC into a different jack, no success. I turned off the surge protector for a bit, no success.
-disconnected the 2 disc drives and floppy & started PC. Still nothing.
-no smells or any type of burned look on boards.
Sorry I am not familiar with PC's, but hopefully this can help narrow down what it may be.
Thanks in advance.
