Right, had no idea where to post this nor what the title should be, so excuse me if it's the wrong forum and/or wrong title.

So, I better get started. Whenever I turn on my computer, the screen responds, having the on-button glowing green, but then immediatly goes orange, which is stand-by. Also, to turn of my computer I simply have to push the on-button once, without having to hold it for a few seconds.

Can anyone help me with this? I have no idea what the problem is or how to fix it. What I do know however is that a little while ago I had a problem with my graphic-card, and subsequently had to uninstall the driver in safe-mode. What I forgot when I finally got into Windows again, was reinstalling it. I doubt this should be the initial cause for the problem I have right now, but you never know.

Thanks in advance. And is this hardware or software related?I doubt this is the problem, because when you don't have graphics drivers installed, Windows loads generic drivers to USE until the correct ones are installed.

When you start the system up, are the fans etc staying on? or is the system resetting itself constantly?

Have you made any hardware changes after you had the graphics card problems?

COULD be a few things CAUSING this... but the things that spring to mind first are:

• Graphics card has/about to die - Are you able to swap this with a known working card?
• PSU - especially if the system is constantly resetting itself... again, you could try swapping this for a known working PSU of equal or higher wattage than your current one.
