hey guys

Cut along story short I found an old hard drive of mine the other day and put it in my PC and it had all my old music and all my old jtag files on but since then my mother board kept trying to run disk checks it never done that before

But since then my pc has been crashing

So i had enough i turned the pc off and unplugged the hard drive and took out the sata data cable

Now I turn my pc on and it turns off then keeps turning its self on and off and on and off

Any help is welcome

After trying loads like booting with 1 ram stick, checking CPU and thermal paste

I took the kettle lead out and held the power down for 30 seconds and now it boots

Leaving open incase this happens to anyone else

Sounds like it just needed a power drain. Could of also just been corrupt files on your HDD if it happens again, if that's the case, do a CHKDSK on your main HDD.
