Good morning all. Call me Imp. I have built a computer from scratch - no problems. A friend shipped his to himself when moving via USPS and when it arrived it wasn't working (and of course his insurance claim was denied).
When he turns it on it rattles and hums and there is no display. Now he's bringing it to me to see what I can do (he's like the guy from Jurassic Park - computer are afraid of him). I have read through several of your threads to get an idea of what to look for and will post my findings here along with details of the machine itself. Right now all I know is that he's running Windows 10.
Glad you guys are here. Wish me luck!

Good luck with the rebuild.

My thoughts is you should NEVER power on this one until you open it up to find the rattle and then try again. A rattle could be as hard to find as it was in my car. That is I was just about to tear it down and start over.
