Guest Frank_Nabbit Report post Posted August 11, 2005 My buddy's CPU is not working, the power to the main CPU brain box is on but nothing but black comes on (I can't remember whether it says "No signal" on screen on not) All the wiring seems hooked up, and he has a bare bones CPU used only to look up fantasy points @ ESPN.com, so I'm at a loss as to where he could've picked up a virus. Anyone have any ideas how to cure this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suggest he find a cheap computer repair store and have them check it out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can get one from newegg.com for cheap or expensive, depending on your needs. I reccomend at least a 300W one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
