Might be a temp problem, get into the bios and check temps, let it sit there until it powers down. Keep watching the temps to see what they are once it finally shuts down.

Oh I thought that you were able to get it on for 5 minutes then 2-3seconds after that.

Interesting, try it with just one stick in and if that doesn't work try the other stick in that ones place.

Well the only things I can think of are to grab a new set of ram and hope that works or grab some tim and use that and hope it works. Not much we can do to diagnose if we can't get it to at least post first.

If your uncomfortable with reapplying the tim or spending the money on a new set of ram you can always take it into a shop and see what they have to say.

Or wait and see if anyone else has any ideas around here, its 3 am here so I might have missed something.
