Does the computer shut down if ram is faulty

[Guest]

Hello,
MY COMPUTER JUST SHUTS DOWN AUTOMATICALLY AFTER STARTING. IT DOES NOT START FULLY.

If RAM isfaulty you will typically get a Blue Screen Of Death
If the PC shuts down it could be several things:

- Overheating
- Power supply faulty
- CPU fan has died

Try opening up the side of the PC and when you power the PC on, do all the fans turn ?

How far does it get before it shuts down ?

Does the power simply just turn off ?

what does your computer say during POST? are there any report faults?
what about BIOS?
does it simply shut down or restart? at which point does it do that?
