I ve been experiencing this a few occations lately. As soon as i
switch on the switch for my extension (where all devices are
plugged) my pc does not boot. After some time the plug is
switched on, the fan starts working (still no boot from pc).
After some more time it tries to start. And keeps doing like this..
Do you think its a battery problem or some unplugged main device....

Make sure that everythingis reseated correctly, try booting with bear bone setup, take out any other parts you dont need test with the stick of ram see if the problems still happens.


What are your system specs??


Thanks

Dig you get any error messages when the pc rebooted? Have you tried cleaning all the fans and heatsink? You might have a courrpt MBR. Did you get a selection to chose what option you wanted to boot into Normal Windows, or Safe Mode?

Regards

Might be a boot/reboot problem ion the BIOS, set it to default settings and try again.

As Wiz says try reseating parts, check the fans on graphics and CPU aren't full of dust.

tey moving the computer to different outlet in different room and exclude the extension (the one all your device is pluged on). Sometime voltage fluctuate will cause that too.
