I have an old server computer from 2005 that still has a lot of potential in my opinion. I acquired it from my dad’s old storage unit. It was running well for about a month and then one day—in the middle of configuring Windows updates—there was a power failure inside the computer.
I was able to start it up for maybe 2 minutes after that but I haven’t gotten it to work since. When I first got it, it seemed to have the same issue to a lesser degree. The problem might be the motherboard 24 pin connector pins not getting a good connection to the power supply cable. I have already replaced the power supply, but I’m still having the same issue. Here is a picture of what the boot screen looks like. It just gets stuck there.
Since it might be a power issue, I was wondering if it is possible to replace the pins in the 24 pin power connector on the motherboard. I have already replaced the cable which comes from the power supply. Is it possible to re-attach the pins?
