Help my pc is not working(it is but it's not)

(my first build) I turn on my pc for gaming then game then it automatically shuts down after about an hour(I purposely set it that way so that I don't play overtime), Then Sometimes I want to play more so I turn it back on but it doesn't turn on, it loops through cpu and Dram(Lights on my mother board keeps switching to cpu then Dram normally it's supposed to go CPU-Dram-VGA-Boot). I tested it out if i just shut down regularly to see if the force timer shut down was the problem but when I turn on my pc and turn it off right away it turns on fine after, when I launch a game and play for a bit then shut it off it doesn't turn on again. I always have to wait at least 5 or 10 min.

@NotLinked Turn off the "auto turn off" feature and get a grip. You can do it.

I tested it without the auto turn off and the same thing happened. I'm pretty sure its a setting from windows idk exactly my dad set it up

Just disable the auto turn off. If you really need a timer and can't just determine the amount of playtime yourself set one on your phone or use a timer app on the computer. Theres no need to use the auto turn off feature if it's causing you issues and from the sounds of it you don't even end up getting off anyway.

Ahh, well then you're out of luck. The auto turn off is why it's doing that. If your parents don't want you to play over an hour, don't play over an hour. You could tell them it's messing the computer up but it's not, you should listen to your parents and follow the rules they have set.

Then I'm sorry to inform you but your parents are at fault of your PCs issues. If you can't reason with them, save up on your own and buy stuff that will be yours to fiddle with. That's what I did.
