I am glad its working for you again, seems lucky. Even then, how on earth would you repair it if it were in the board itself and not a capacitor or chip on top? You couldn't. If it keeps up, its probably the board flaking out and I don't think it would be fixable unless you were a true electronics engineer and could specify exactly what part of the board is flaking out / failing. Its a computer from 2009 that you paid $150 for. These are all either "new old stock" or used boards. If it is a flaky motherboard, I still don't see how you can "fix it." I think a 30 day warranty on a motherboard from a PC built in 2009 is a fair deal. Just because its intermittent doesn't mean it's fixable. Since the code does throw some power related info, if you have a spare power supply it may be worth throwing a different PSU in there as well just for the heck of it. Unless you are some kind of advanced electronics engineer you have no real way of troubleshooting component level failures on a motherboard, and even if you could identify it, how would you repair the board unless it is a capacitor? You're just going to replace the board it seems to me.īut first try to remove EVERYTHING you can, the USB cable for the battery (if used), keyboard, mouse, external drives, ANYTHING. Honestly, it probably means the motherboard died and you will either have to get a T3500 motherboard online or buy a new machine. Try to remove all unnecessary components, such as any add-in video cards or other PCI cards (if any) and run only the monitor and power to see if you can get it to POST (no keyboard, mouse or anything else USB). The key is you said blinking, blinking and solid are two different error codes. This does not indicate an issue with a PCI card or add-in of any kind, but a general error with the motherboard itself. (PS_ON asserted, PS_PWRGOOD asserted, SYS_PWRGOOD de-asserted)" This could be caused by a failed system board component or by a plug-in device creating a short on a regulated power rail. I found this online "A power failure has been detected in one of the onboard system board regulators.
