Motherboard crashed. - sampankaj001 - 11-12-2009
My Main board was crashed, i was plaing FL in SP, when electricity power goes down for three hours due to scheduled power cut.
When it came back i'm tried to start my PC, but it won't started (i hope this would not get happened by FL).
I opened the cabinet, then i notice, whenever i pressed the UPS power button there was a small movement of processor cooling fan, after that nothing.
I take it to support center they said main board got damaged, i dont know how this was happens.
Can you help me, i want new motherboard, please tell me the best one with price. (not so much pricy)

The motherboard to buy would depend on what you have for equipment now.. mainly when it comes to CPU (if you plan to/can keep your existing one), video card (do you have AGP or PCIe), and your RAM (type and speed).
Posting some details about your current setup will help in finding a good option for you.

You could try first if it only the power that has burned. one time i got the same problem and was the power not the CPU. If you have an old CPU at home try to change it and see if it works

If there was a scheduled power-outage then you probably should have turned off your computer and unplugged it before hand... sounds like it got fried, you might need to replace it.
