Hello, I am new to these forums. I've looked through several threads regarding PCs not booting, and have so far come up with nothing. I was hoping that someone could help me.
My PC has worked fine for about 6 months, built with the help of a friend. About a week ago, the power on it just went out. The PC then sat there and attempted to restart over and over again... fans come on, case and keyboard lights come on, and then the PC will make it to various stages of boot before the power just dies again. This typically happens during the initial video card text prior to actual boot, though strangely enough it also happens before ever that.
I've gotten the thing to boot up twice now, all the way into Windows XP, but neither time did it last more than a few minutes.
This PC seems to WANT to boot... after a few seconds of the power being it, it'll come back on and try again.
