Paul, Is your graphics card seated correctly, no access weight on it, monitor cord not pulling on it while upright? Same with cpu not got a large fan on it which the clips are not in correctly?
Tony. -----Original Message----- From: Paul [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, January 24, 2003 3:30 PM To: newbie Subject: [newbie] OT: hardware weirdness Hello all, Forgive this OT post, but can someone point me into the right direction? My PC is going nuts. When it is upright, it won't boot properly (powers off immediately after switching it on). When it lies on the side, the system keeps running without a problem when switched on. Already had the entire internals apart and back together again, to no avail. What can be wrong here??? I tried all I can think of. Thanks. Paul -- We must believe in luck.
