my comp starts to power up then 15-20 seconds later it turns off and it wont stay on any longer than that. can someone help me out here
 
Hello,

What are your system specifications?

Does this occur in safe mode?

What are your system temperatures?
 
it wont start at all. it will show the foxconn mobo screen show some of the post stuff and thats as far as it will get and turn off
 
the comp was doing this before so i decided to upgrade a few things while it was having problems. i upgraded the mobo, psu, and cpu

foxconn 661GX
intel 352
dont know the exacts on the pus but it is a cheap one.

but the comp was doing this before i upgraded the parts
 
Start swapping out components, starting with the motherboard.

Course I assume you don't have any testing parts, else you probably would have done this already.

That being said, go out and buy some cheap test parts, or try a friends motherboard, assuming they will let you.

If you don't do that, RMA the motherboard, If you can't RMA the motherboard, buy a cheap one and swap it out.

Its a cycle, if you can't do one, you must do the other.
 
i just bought the mobo and cpu and it was acting this was before i swapped out the old parts. but i may have some test parts to swap in there. and ill see how that goes
 
So what parts are you reusing from your previous build.

Swap out or RMA the reused parts.

Also turn it on while motherboard is outside of case, on a non-conductive surface.
