Hey everyone, I don't know alot about hardware and this is my 1st post but here goes anyway:
On my sister's desktop, when pressing the power button, it will turn on for a second then turn off quickly. 3-5 seconds later, all power comes back on except it does not boot into bios/windows. Then the motherboard makes 6 beeps. I first opened the tower to make sure all wires were plugged in correctly, which they were. I took out the video card, then booted back up but it did the same thing so I placed that back. I then took out the RAM sticks, but this did not work either. I don't know alot of about this computer except it's a Dell XPS 410. I went to Dell's support site but I couldn't find the parts list on it. My sister said she was performing a "Disk Cleanup", then rebooted and noticed this issue.
Any help or recommendations? Thanks
