Try to repair my desktop computer
In one of my post here, I repaired one of my desktop PC but ruined another one. So today, I tried to replace the motherboard.
On that day, when the computer could not boot up, I thought it was because it have a not-so-good motherboard.

It happened after I changed the motherboard last year, after it was striked by lightning.

Today, I received the motherboard, but in a not-so-good packing. He only put the motherboard into a thin old plastic bag and put it in a box full of newspaper. I quickly assembles it into the ruined desktop PC.
Unfortunately, …
Unfortunately, it also cannot boot up.
