Hello,
my computer will start to start up and it seems that the fans are a little too fast and then it shuts down before anything on the screen pops up.. within about 3-6 seconds after i press the power button. i really xont think nothing has gone bad in my computer i have windows xp, nvidia 7900 gforce sli, asus motherboard, amd dual core processor, 500 watt power supply, and 2 4 gb ram sticks... i have tried to take everything out of the computer clean them off and put them back.. i have also tried to take out the motherboard battery and put it back in after 1 minute... i have disconnected every cord and plugged them back in.. i dont know what else i could do but i would like to see i someone could maybe tell me if they had this problem and what was wrong with it.. please and thank you

since your in sli on graphic could you remove one graphic card and try restart with one card at the time

7900's take a bit of power. Your PSU may not be strong enought to run 2 cards. Pull one card and see if it boots. Is there any bios screen? Does the motherboard have a SLI circuit switch? (about the size of laptop memory and sits between the 2 cards)
