I have been having this annoying peiodical problem where my computer turns itself of and tryes to start up, but then just gives up an shuts down again.


Does anyone know what causes this? If you need my specs you can just go to my profile.

Ya some specs would help a lot. If you have multiple sticks of RAM, remove all of them and repopulate one dimm with a known good module. 

 

Have you tried unplugging everything except the components you absolutely need to post?

Something is causing a short or bad hardware, such as CPU or Motherboard itself. Try using another CPU to see if it boots up, unplug all devices and remove components such as HDD, dvd drives, Ram one by one until computer boots up, Or even try to reset the bios.

My best guess would be that a RAM module is defective, try and take all the ram out and put one RAM module in, if it boots up and goes to windows then shut down your PC, take out the module and insert another module and continue doing this until the problem happens again and then you know what RAM module is defective.However if your pc doesn't boot with any of the RAM, Then the ram isn't the problem but at least you can cross that of the list,

Good luck
