Okay so first of all I bought my parts about 2 months ago and ever since everythings been running smooth and great till 2 days ago. The parts are:

XFX 680i LT mobo
Q6600 quad core
EvGA 8800GT
2GB RAM Corsair

Nothings been ever overclocked, as I built it on the first day everythings been runnin great.

But 2 days ago my girlfriend came over wit a friend and they were fighting for whos gonna chek their facebook first. One of em accidently kicked the computer and i was standuing beside so as it was falling down i pulled it back up n it hit the desk with a small force...

everything went down

after that i didnt know what was wrong i was missing the green light on the motherboard, as i press pwr button the fans wud start for half a second all the lights wud go on and then fans wud go back down and green light wud go off and only the orange and blue stays on...

after reconnecting the cables i got it back up and running until yesterday night...

i came back home and i got the same problem everything starts for .5 seconds and gos down... and the green light is missing

ive tried booting with one memory stick but didnt help

i wanna try taking out my battery but i cudnt figure it out how to take it down for the past hour

so i dont know whats wrong everything been running great for 2 months

help is really need
or at least tell me how to take out the battery on that one cuz i cant find a guide and nothing seems to work

thanks very much

I would tear the whole system apart and check for some physical damage on the mobo.
You may just have a loose screw from the crash or something thats shorting the motherboard though.

I would just reseat everything. Check to CPU heatsink to make sure it didn't break the Mobo, and you might've killed the HDD.

yea omg its sooo random

after all day it started again just randomly out of nowhere

then i had bluescreeen wudnt even let me in the windows

so i reinstalled it n here i am now from dis comp

but what if it does the same thing again? it jus started working out of nowhere.... :/ I'm thinking it could be HDD because the first time it happened, it started after reconnecting HDD cables n i also kinda knocked on it....

hopefully nothings broken n everything gonna be runnin smooth again from now on :)
