  3. Hi, Competent using computers to the most basic of levels, but rapidly spiralling down a road to doom, so would be ever so grateful for some expert help.

It powered on, then off, then on, then off, then the failsafe kicked in and it reset everything back to normal. Has anyone got any tips? I've not overclock
