So I've just built my FIRST gaming PC!

Hey guys! Having a problem with my new PC :( It was working fine until all of a sudden when I went to put it on it wouldn't start properly! The comp starts up for about a second and the fan starts etc then it cuts off.. It will then come back again only to again, cut off. I have used different wall sockets, power cables and checked my connections in the case and still nothing..

Any advice??

Thanks!

Could be that the CPU heatsink's come loose. They can be a real pain in the arse to get seated properly, if it's come loose the CPU could be instantly overheating and causing you poota to shut off.

If that's not the case, like one of the other guys said, reseat everything, reset the CMOS by moving one of the jumpers on the board or removing the battery (should be a diagram in the mobo manual).

I reckon it's a BIOS issue.

Thanks I'll try that among some other suggestions when I get home
 
I just don't "get" starcraft 2.

I'm not a elite rts player infact I'm average at games such as company of heroes.

I just didn't get the game, it didn't hook me in, kept getting beaten by bronze players and even getting people hot under the collar with my amateurishness.

I'd say unless youre a dab hand at rts starcraft 2 online is pretty poor.
