Re: Gigabyte 8IRXP start itself!!!!

No, the power switch has no effect. I've tripped everything out, even the CPU was detached. It's just the mainboard only and it power on itself, even without the CPU.

As I said, I've changed the whole system and it's the mainboard fault, 99.99% definitely.

I think i should re-cap it.

But i want to listen to your advise before i do that.

Hi mates

My computer with a P4 1.6Ghz and GA 8IRXP mainboard suddenly died. When I plug the power cord in, it starts itself.

I removed all the expansion card, ram, even CPU, the mainboard keeps start itself again everytime i plug it into main. But it not boot, here's the symtoms:

1. Power on every time plug power on.
2. Not boot, no POST, no beeep, no video, justpower on.
3. All the power rails are ok, measured by VOM multimeter
4. VCore OK, 1.5 volt, measured at the VSEN of Intersil HIP 6302 VRM controller.
5. CPU not...

Plug the power cord on, nothing happened

Then i decided to check all the transistors and rectifier diodes: They're in good condition.

I stuck here for 2 weeks, then finally i thought that maybe the PSU need some power to kick off.

Immediately i grabbed my bench supply and bump 12volt into...
