hello.

i just installed my first computer by myself.

and it seems that something is wrong. everytime, when i
turn on the computer, nothing happens. i can see the
computer light turning for a few seconds, and i can see
the chip fan running, but the screen is always in the
hibernation mode.

i always have to open the case, and unplug that one
specifica motherboard energy plug (I think that is what
it is), it has over 10 pins on it. I have to unplug it,
and plug it in the motherboard again.

then the machine will start again.

i tried several times to set the BIOS menu to set the
first boot device as the hard disk. And usually, if i
turn off the computer, and turn it back on in a few
hours. it works perfectly.

but if i turn off the computer, and try to use the next
day. then i will have to go through the whole process
again. oh, after i unplug everything, i noticed that the
computer clock will be set back to january 1st again.

so why is that? is there something wrong with the
motherboard? i am using an AMD chip and a compatible
motherboard.

also, I have tried to take out the inside battery, and
put it back in without unplug that motherboard energy
plug. but that didn't help at all. it seems that the only
way to make my computer to work is to unplug that energy
plug. =(
 
If you are accurately describing what you are doing inside
the computer case, you're luck that you haven't fried
yourself and you have probably damaged the mobo and other
hardware if you are plugging and unplugging hardware while
the system is power-on.

Disconnect the computer from the mains by pulling out the net cord on the
back of your pc, remove the on-board battery and leave it like that for a
couple minutes to be sure that no residual energy remains in the board. Then
insert a new battery in the holder. Do note that your BIOS settings will be
wiped and that you'll have to reconfigure your BIOS, so either write down
all the current settings, or have someone on standby that can reconfigure
your BIOS for you. Then your computer should be working fine again, unless
you have a hardware failure in your PC, which could be any and all parts
really...

Find somebody who understands computers take a look at what you've done
before you fry something -- if you haven't already. This isn't something
that's going to be solved online. You've probably got something plugged in
or set wrong, or there's some defective or damaged hardware, but unless
someone can look at it and check all the connections and settings.
