Ok so i'll start with my laptop specs:
Alienware M15x
Intel i5 2.5
8 gigs ram
nvidia M260
windows 7 home premium
Ok I'm not logged able to see the specs, but those are fairly accurate, minus the video card. So i'm trying to get it to boot and the computer powers on, the lights and fans can be heard spinning up. It gets to the point where I get the alienware logo and it shuts down and begins to reboot. I've tried going into the bios and it still shuts down. I am unable to get it to stay running for any length of time to try and get anywhere with it.
I've tried pulling the RAM out and testing the slots and sticks, but it still shuts down. I've removed the battery and starting it with just the AC adapter, but same results. Tried running with just the battery and again, same results.
I'm beginning to think that the mobo is fried, but since I don't have the option of buying a new laptop I was hoping to get some help here. I would like to give the whole specs of the computer, but I can not get it to stay running long enough to get anywhere with it.
Thanks for taking the time to read this and hopefully someone can assist me with this issue.
