How can you tell if your CPU is fried?
One of the most common signs of CPU failure is the random freezing of your computer, usually after just logging into the operating system. The system won’t respond to any of your instructions. The mouse freezes on the screen and any attempt to use the keyboard will result in a series of short beeps.
How do I know if my CPU is damaged?
Plug your computer into an electrical outlet and turn it on. Look for the BIOS manufacturer name—such as Award, AMI or Phoenix—on your monitor as the computer starts up and then listen for and record the number and sequence of beeps that occur as your computer goes through a power-on self test, also called a POST test.
