PC stuck in Booting Loop

[DenzelFenzel]

So i get home from work at about 11pm and get my pc to turn on, its been in sleep mode for the whole day since about 3am earlier in the morning. The moment i wake it up, it goes for about 30 seconds then it simply just turns off, i took the GPU out and tried using 1 DIMM at a time and its still not even booting up or even showing the motherboard splash screen. What should i do next?

pull the AC cord out the back. Take the CMOS battery out of the motherboard (coin battery). Leave it for a good 10 mins and put the battery back in and try to boot and see how that goes.

Tried that, same thing still stuck in the booting sequence

take out the GPU and see if you can boot with the IGPU. If that fails take out more things like 1 RAM dimm etc.

Windows 8 or 7?

Try to see if you can interrupt the sequence. Like when it boots, force a shutdown before it normally would shutdown. Sometimes breaking the loop might cause it to become un-stuck.

last time my system was in a booting loop it was overclocked with too little voltage on the CPU core, i layed a screw onto the clear cmos pins and booted up my system, my overclock was undone and my system worked

hmm... that could be the issue although my CPU seemed ok running at 4.4Ghz with 1.25V through it. heck its been running that overclock for about 2 weeks just fine. ill try it out later

 

 

For now put your suggestions here, I need my sleep as its nearly 5am Saturday in Melbourne and I've been at it for 6 hours trying to figure out the issue. I'll get back to the topic later when I wake up

Pressed the clear CMOS Button nothing seemed to work. gonna try resetting the BIOS

tried flashing a new BIOS and nothing seemed to work. Should I RMA?
