So, my pc turned on, had a website or two opend, but was watching tv, then my pc wanted some attention and gave a blue screen.
So as all i could do was reboot my pc, now it will not start up anymore, It will give no screen, and it will not stay on, after 5-10 seconds it turns off, and then after 2-5 seconds it turns on again remaining in this loop. So I think its not even booting up the bios anymore?
Everything is connected, as the pc was turned on and ive doublel checked.
using windows vista
Gigabyte GA-x48-DS5 Motherboard.
4 x 2048 OCZ Ram.
Nvidia GT8800
Creative soundblaster Xi-Fi
750GB sata2 (Samsung)
The pc is a few months old, just had a clean installation 2 days ago, And hasnt had any problems till now.
None of my ideas got me any further. Any ideas anyone?
I got a good anti virus, and the only things in use are trusted things.
Cant get the computer to stay on, and all it gives is black screen. No bios info nothing.

If you can get the computer to remain ON for a long enough period of time, read the Windows Error logs in the Event Viewer to see if the problem is listed as an error.
To open the Event Viewer:
(1) Click: Start
(2) Type: Event Viewer
Then wait for Windows to bring up the Event Viewer in the Start Menu's left-hand pane. Then click on the Event Viewer button that will appear in the Start Menu's left-hand pane.
The Event Viewer will open after a few seconds. In the Event Viewer's left-hand windowpane, click on the little expander arrow next to the words 'Windows Logs'.
The Windows Logs will expand to show:
Application
Security
Setup
System
Click on the choice named System
Look for exclamation points on items listed in the center column.
Read the 'General' description of the error.
Google the error to find out what it pertains to and possibly how to fix it.
If you cannot get the computer to stay on long enough to perform the preceding actions, reboot into safe mode and try the Event Viewer again.
If you still suffer from an unsolicited reboot before you can read the logs, just reinstall Windows one more time (but do a full disk format during the installation process).
