I hooked my computer up at home two days ago and then i brought it back to school yesterday. It worked fine while i was home but now that im back at school it won't start up.
I hit the power button and power goes to all the fans, LEDs on case and mobo, video card, etc. However, the monitor light just blinks, i get no picture, and my CD, HDD, and FDD don't even kick into action.
My mobo has this little light thing on it that shows numbers and such (although my case doesn't have speakers so i can't hear the beeping...) and it shows two giant F's. I looked in my mobo manual and it says "Load Boot Sector". I have no idea why it's not starting up but i took everything out, and re-assembled it but still nothing.
I found an online thing that said the issue for that might be that i need a new bios chip but the thing worked fine just 24 hours before i moved it. Nothing is rattling around in there and i even tried to load up barebone (PSU, CPU, 1 RAM Stick) but still nothing.
Any help i'd greatly appreciate. Thanks.
