Booting up "issue".

[malicht]

Hey guys!

Got a new Gfx card yesterday from OCUK, and it all seems fine.

However this morning I turned my pc on and it powered up for about 3 seconds, then powered down.

I hit the power switch again and the pc booted up just fine. I may sound paranoid but I've had no end of trouble recently, and wanted to see what peopel thuoght about it.

Additionally I intermittently get an error with Desktop Windows Manager not activating when I switch the pc on. I have to manually go into services and do so.

Thoughts?

As for windows you could try and do a system repair but make sure you back up your files in case it goes wrong.

Yeah I may give that a try later on today.

In regards tot he booting up issue I guess I just have to see if it was a one off or a long term problem.
