PC Starts then shutdown immediately, What causes this ?

E-AlRomaithi

Hello,

As its mentioned in the title sometimes when I start my PC, it starts then shutdown immediately then starts again normally and boot to windows. So I am asking the community what usually causes this weird behavior ?  

PS: This is the second time happens to me since building this PC. The first time this thing happened when I have finished building my PC and pressed the power button for the first time, the PC started then shutdowns immediately for three times in a row then booted normally at fourth time.  

Here are the specs of my PC, if its help.

After it turns off, the pc starts again automatically, then boots to windows normally. Is that Ok ?

Nope. happened twice only.

First time when I finished Building my PC and start it up, it dual-booted for three times in a row then the forth boot was normal. (Booted to the BIOS)

The second time today, PC dual-booteed once only.

I am happy that there is nothing to worry about :D
