My PC is playing up guys and gals..................
On power up the fan starts to whirr for a few seconds then the whole thing closed down before ever getting to any of the boot screens. This has happened all of today.
This evening after a couple of attempts the machine stayed on (briefly flashing a message about CD-ROM failure during startup).......disk checked.....and has been OK since......fingers crossed!
The CD-ROM occasionally does a bit of uncommanded opening and closing (no nasty viruses thoroughly checked).............
Has all the symptoms of a short circuit somewhere but to be honest I'm a bit baffled..............
Any ideas folks??????????
