This thread is going at speed more than i can handle :) ,

thx guys but a bad news :(.
The PC worked fine for 3-4 hours on the first day i bought it, next day while installing Vista 64 premium the PC went off, now its not starting. The led of Mobo shows active status but when i power it on everything works for 1-2 secong and than goes off.
Any help ?

I will Post the pics soon as the system gets stable. Currently i just need it to get working. All i can think is that its a SMPS issue :(

if you think it's SMPS issue, remove the PCIe graphics and check.

as others said, did you try to upgrade the BIOS.

Also, did you overclock your CPU? I had similar issue when I did over-overclocking. I had to remove the CMOS battery, wait for 10-15 minutes, insert the battery and start the PC. It loaded default values. Then I reduced the OC valued a bit and since this it's pretty stable.

Already removed the pcie graphics
can not upgrade bios as its does not even remain powered for 2 secs
No overclock.

Things I am going to do:
* Remove CMOS and put it back
* Remove all ram slots and check

Currently in office, will chk this after 2 hrs when i reach home , I dont have internet @ home so will not be able to reply to this thread then.
I you ppl have more suggestions pls tell me , i will try them.

@ tarey_g

2 things may be culprit !!

PSU , Bios

If bios problem means it ll run but wont good gives problem after running

720 is AM3 Cpu so BIOS update is necessary
