Driver booster obliterated my pc

[Esgaroth]

Yea, so i used driver booster 8 to update many drivers at once. The first part (Device Drivers) went smooth. Installed all, restarted my pc, everything ok. The second part (Game Components) is where the fun begins. Downloaded all, program said to restart pc so i did. After this my PC cant boot even to BIOS, black screen, USBs are not powered. I went to computer service where i was told that motherboard and CPU are dead. Any ideas what went wrong and why is this program killing so many PCs? Best xmas present ever.

Never heard anything like that before.

How could drivers kill a motherboard and cpu.???

Did you try booting from a rescue disc (usb).

My motherboard doesn't power up USB ports. So i am unable to boot anything.

Just to be clear. Are you saying that your pc is basically just an ornament now.

That absolutely nothing happens when you switch on/power up???

[Esgaroth]

Step by step:

I press power up button 

I can see that fans on CPU and GPU are starting to work  

LED on motherboard are lighting up too

Nothing more happens, no video, no BIOS, no USB power

Have you tried booting into safe mode?

Does your machine have a cd/dvd player?

Does your machine have a reset button.

[Esgaroth]

I can't boot into anything without being able to reach BIOS. Even if, USB are not powered up so no keyboard or mouse.

Yes I have cd player and reset button.

[Scannan]

It is either the BIOS or the graphics drivers. If the graphics drivers are wrong then your monitor will be blank

and it will look like nothing is working.

When you did your driver(s) update, did you also update your BIOS. If so, then this may be the issue.

Did you try using the reset button?

Try, using a rescue disc in your cd/dvd player.

Ye i fixed the problem by ordering a new MOBO and CPU....

I'm speechless guys. I have said that I can't even boot to bios and you are telling me to launch some .exe things xD

 

[Scannan]

Only Iobit asked you to launch an .exe, because that is their standard answer for everything, even though it is no help.

You are not the only person to ever have this issue, and it is not always related to DB...see here...
