But the problem i have now, is, for example i start the computer from being "off" for 8 hours, it seems that when i press the power button everything works, the cpu, and gpu (im basing that they are working because of their fan) even the power button led lights are running but it seems not going to windows. And i really need to turn it off and by turning it on again, it would start normally and i can use it now. This happened 2 times since last day. Please help me.
Understanding the issue(s)Ok, slow down. Let us understand exactly what happens.
So when you start the computer, after it was shut down for many hours (shut down right, not hybernate or sleep?), the fans inside the computer case start spining, you hear the beeps from the motherboard speaker (like usual, nothing different right?), then what happens to the monitor?
Is there no image displayed? Do you get past the power on self test or not? If you do but there is no signal to the monitor then it's quite possible that the video card is broken. To confirm this you will have to borrow a working and compatible video card from a friend and see if the same thing happens. If you still get no video signal with a card that is known to work then the problem comes from the motherboard (most likely).
To confirm that the video card is broken or not, you could install in a computer that is known to be stable and see if it exhibits the same behaviour (that computer ofc, would have to have a PCI-E slot and a good enough power supply). If it replicates the problem, then you have pinpointed the issue, but if it works properly, then you can be pretty confident that it's the motherboards fault.
Furthur investigation could be done by testing with another power supply (again one from a friend that it's known to work without issue, or from a IT store close to you) and see if the problem persists.
Step by step troubleshootingBut we are still at the begining, let's take it step by step.
1st, describe exactly what happens. Look into the motherboard's manual and check the bios signals during post. There should be a number a "beeps" that say if everything, from the mobo's POV, is working fine. If you get the same number of beeps than it's most likely the video card's fault for this issue.
2nd Once you have established if the mobo POSTs every time or not you can move to the next step.
PS: since you didn't tell us what CPU/mobo you have idk if you have an integrated GPU you could test with, instead of using a dedicated video card from a friend.
