Hmm, could be PSU, can you try another one on your rig? Borrow a friends?

Not really but it's a 420w it should be enough

So you see the windows loading screen but then the pc just literally shuts it self off? It doesn't restart straight away? You have to press the power button to power it back on again?

I'm not saying it not enough... it could be faulty, a PC shouldn't just die during boot? Can you boot to bios? Does it stay on for more than 10 minutes if you leave it in bios?
