Startup Problems

Hello ppl,

Recently i have been having some issues with my pc.

Here is the problem...

When i turn my PC on, it doesnt display anything on the screen.

I know its on because the lights are flashing on the box & i can hear the fans running. I also know my Screen is on because it has a on light. I have tested the monitor on a different PC & works perfect.

So the temporary fix i got, i opened up my pc box, got a hoover & cleaned all the dust & fans. Then i started up my pc & it works (thats how im using it now), but when i switch it off & start it up again, it does same thing again, nothing on the screen when i start it up. Then i did hoover thing & it worked.

Some weird stuff lol.

Any help is appreciated, Thanks.

I think ive fixed it.

My PC seems to be working fine now.

FIX: I cleaned up fans & dust with hoover properly & made sure nothing was getting in their way.

Previously when my pc was working fine, it used to display temp at startup as around 42°C to 49°C. After i did hoover 1st time round it worked & was running at 55°C to 65°C. Then i cleaned again with hoover properly and stuff. Now it runs at about 20°Cto 30°C i think... so im guessing it was overheating.
