I just tried to restore my computer within the settings tab of Windows 8, and the computer restarted like it was supposed to. After the computer restarted, nothing displayed on my monitor, and my Razer keyboard/mouse did not illuminate. Then after about 10 seconds, the computer shut off, and booted back up again. Same thing, nothing on monitor and no lights in keyboard. I let it go through the process once more before I unplugged the power cord, and the computer tried to reboot again even with no power cord! The LEDs came on for about half a second but then shut off. I replugged the power cord back in a few minutes later, and manually turned the comp on myself. Same process took place. I searched other threads for answers, but everyone else was able to see the BIOS menu on their monitors. I can give more information if needed. (specs, monitor, etc)

With the pc off unscrew the VGA cable from the motherboard VGA port and reinsert and rescrew. Unplug the PSU and all power cables and reinsert them, you can even go as far as removing the RAM and reinserting them.

Then just eave the PC off for a bit and do a restart (make sure to unplug any unnecessary items apart from Keyboard & mouse so as not to waste any power). Tell me what happens then?

Once you get power to your monitor, keyboard you'll want to go into your BIOS and boot in safe mode.

Sounds like a PSU problem to me
