Ok My sister's boyfriend build a comp yesterday and when he booted it up it loaded bios and then he started installing XP and it shut off and won't come back on. Now my theory is that its his power supply but maybe some of u have had this problem before and can at-least give tips on how to find out what the problem is. Just so u know He's not completely computer dumb and he does no what he's doing he actually help me solve a problem i had when building mine.
His specs are something like this
8800gts ( new model )
300gb HD
680w Power supply
phenom Cpu
1 DVD rom drive
msi canine A2 platnium
curial ballistic 2 gb
So my theory is that if it is his power supply it's a complete dud because 680 w is by far enough power imo.
