Was playing CS:GO last night and Alt Tab'ed out to check my steam downloads when pc froze. Hit the restart button and just got a load of short fast beeps then after about 10 secs its reboots and gets stuck in the same loop. Every now and then it will post and load windows up but after a short period of time will freeze up and then after hitting the restart button it get stuck in the restart loop again.

Any ideas?

Cheers
 
Sounds like a RAM issue if its in boot loop, one stick at a time sometimes just needs a reseat for no reason.

Also for some reason some of the boot loop faults clear if you leave it unpowered for a few hours just for that annoying moment when the tech guy turns up and the faults gone.
 
Left it all night and it still didnt cure it.
Tried removing ram and trying it one stick at a time in differnt slots, Still didnt cure it.
Just spent the last hour completly stripping it right down to removing cpu and reseated everything and it seems to have cured it, Very strange.
