About DaZ FiZzle
Expertise
I can assist you with common problems and over-looks when assembling your pc. I can also assist with basic and advanced OS errors (XP & XP Pro Corporate are my specialty). My main weakness is Mac, and any other non-windows based operating systems. I'm also really rusty on anything prior to 98SE. I can offer advice on a range of software, codec, and driver needs. If you need help finding the right software for a job chances are I can point you toward it.

Experience
18 years total experience. About 2 years of that is from formal training in a classroom setting, the rest is through my own trial and error and of course from the very helpful tutorials found on the internet.

Organizations
TCDE Tech Office

Education/Credentials
2 years at college and am currently working as a technician for the local department of education

Awards and Honors
T.A.G. (Talented And Gifted), Century 21 sponsored office award for exceeding 100WPM typing speed

PC hardware--CPU & Motherboard & RAM - problem


Expert: DaZ FiZzle - 10/5/2009

Question
my computer gets on as soon as i plug in without even me pressing the power button and shuts off immediately.can you please help?


Answer
you most likely have hardware failure.  probably the motherboard, but it could also be the power supply.

just to rule out the simple things though you should try another computer power cord if you have one, and a different power outlet.
peace,
-DaZ
