Boot-up problem

[chickenfoot]

I can do everything on this computer I'm running. The thing is that whenever I shut down the computer, and turn it back on, it wouldn't. Everytime I would want to turn on the computer, I would have to

1. Turn off the switch at the back of the computer, then turn it back on, or
2. Unplug the power cable from the surge protector, or
3. Unplug the power cable from the computer.

After I do any of those steps, then when I press my power button, the computer would turn on. I'm wondering because this is just so annoying that I have to unplug the cable everytime I would want to turn on my computer. Thanks for your time.

what's your motherboard?
try installing new chipset drivers for it. or update your BIOS.

I read that they are good at that. Computer Shopper reviewed one of their budget gaming systems. It was supposed to have one mobo, shipping invoice said another, but the computer actually had a different one.

Run Everest and see what you really have in there.
