Had a search - but can't find something so specific to mine.

I brought this computer form OcUK ages ago - and having a nightmare with it, had so many problems - and just got more.

Basically my Hard-Drive hung at dmi, and I sent it to OcUK with an RMA; but didn't want to wait up to 28 days so I brought one from OC.

I installed it just fine, put windows on and everything, installed; Windows Live Messenger, The default W7 updates, Steam, and Teamspeak 2.

I shut it down, and then turned it back on in about 2 seconds, and then it just stayed on start-up. It's an Abit ip35, and it hangs on the screen which has the red monster-truck in the background, and it says: Press TAB" to show post screen, "DEL" to enter set-up.

Anyone got any ideas? All of these problems are doing my head in.
 
does it get past the post screen atall? you say you have installed the OS and now after a reboot it will not post?

Try removing all IDE Drives and any USB Devices (bar your KB / Mouse, IF USB)

Remove your RAM and boot up with only one stick installed, try the ram in all slots.
