Hello, first thanks for having a look at my post,

My pc that we use as a family pc won't turn on, the lights at the front just start flashing constontly and there is a clicking noise, i have been told it was my Hard drive but when i went to buy a new one i got told it could be my motherboard, i was woundering how to find my motherboard without me been able to turn it on?


can any one help me please?

Hello Paul jnr,

Welcome to PCHF.

The only way to check the make and model of your motherboard, without turning the PC on, is to hope that it is actually written on the motherboard itself. ASUS for example, usually have theirs written in big white letters across the middle of the motherboard. Other manufacturers will print theirs on the edge of the motherboard.

Is this PC custom built, or does the PC itself have a make and model?

my dad baught it from pc world a few years ago.

Paul, if you give me the make and model of the PC, I will try and find out the motherboard make and model for you, if it is not printed on the motherboard?

it says micro star model MS-6719 is that it?

the pc is median PC MT5

You got it Paul, the model of the motherboard is actually MS-6719, made by MSI, socket 478.
