Today, i turned on my Mint pc and it wouldn’t let me type in a passpowrd. Even the mouse was not reacting.

So i rebooted, got a massive text wall that mentioned something about not syncing

When i rebooted again, it wouldn’t start up only a few rotations with the fans and then it restarts and repeats this loop

I assume that this is a hardware issue but what should i be looking into and how do i make the recovery as smooth as possible?

    Oof. Sounds like a anything-could-be-bad scenario.

    Assuming this is a desktop? I’d proabably start with the PSU, and go from there, yeah.

      Ok thanks. The PSU is the newest part in this PC. Was replaced half a year ago for doing the exact same thing. Sounds like there may be something breaking the PSU somehow
