My IP35 has started acting up.
It's always had the issue whereby, when you start it, it powers up for about 5-10 seconds then powers off and then starts again and this time boots all the way into Windows.
Now, however, I'm having trouble starting it at all. I turn it on and all the fans and disks power up, including the GFX fan at full tilt which makes a bit of a racket, but that's as far as it gets. It just sits there - no display, no beep, no boot. Reset button does nothing and I have to power off. I've checked all the connections inside and they seem fine. The only remedy is to keep powering off and on again until it works, which can take 10-15 attempts sometimes. When it does finally boot, it works perfectly until I switch it off.
Anyone got any ideas?
