My CPU has problems but I don't know what/where the problem particularly, this just happen since last week, I have this CPU for 2 years.

When I turn on the CPU, sometimes it doesn't display anything.. It just say No display then sleeps the monitor, but the CPU is still running and PSU is still up.. The OS didn't boot either. There's only a chance when I turn it on and it boots up and I can use the computer until I shutdown/turn it off, I can use it normaly when it is and there's no problem like it shuts down by itself, but when I turn it on again, the problems happen again..

Anyone experience this? Is this hardware or software? PSU? MoBo?

Help please.. :(

I'ld recomend reposting this in PC hardware. Also what do you mean by CPU? The CPU is a single chip inside your PC you cannot turn it on individually. As your monitor says "no display" i can guess that it means "no signal" which basically means there's no data coming through the data cable from the PC to the monitor, check your monitor to GPU wiring.

My problem is video display so I can post it here, can't I? What I mean by CPU is the whole CPU, the whole unit.

That's just called a computer not a CPU, the CPU is a small unit about 5cm*5cm and the chip under the heatspreader is even smaller. You can post it here but it's much less active here than PC hardware so it could take a week to get a fix here but only a few hours in PC hardware.

The same thing happened to me over the past couple of weeks: either the computer wouldn't boot up at all or if it did it would often not have any video. It turned out to be a bad motherboard. I replaced it and everything works fine now.

Well if the problem is not booting up at all then it proberbly is the mobo but could also be the PSU, but as TC just mentions connection problems to the monitor it's proberbly the cabling, monitor or GPU. Best thing to do is to try different cabling and if that dosn't work try a different monitor, if they don't solve the problem the GPU is broken.
