Actually I am leaning to Speedy's suggestion that the RAM may be dodgy - I took it out - presto perfect boot. Added one still no problem currently running the second as well. Now to test the RAM if I can get that Memtest to work - that was when today really took a dive so I'm apprehensive to use it. Is there another way to test RAM? I still think it is odd that this all happened 48 hours after W10 and the machine wasn't in use for 36 of those hours, haven't been moved or disturbed in any way other than to upgrade.	EFFIGY (12530)

Sometimes just re-inserting the RAM a few times is enough to get it going again . Easiest way to test it is with Memtest86+ , download & burn to CD, boot off the cd. RAM tests may not help if the fault is intermittent. Quote: " I shut it down to test and when I hit the power it just sat there powering and stopping powering and stopping, , so I unplugged everything wiggled the usb wires and sata connections and it started." You have a few hardware issues . Expect ongoing issues.	1101 (13337)

1406360	2015-08-13 04:04:00	You have a few hardware issues . Expect ongoing issues. Hardly surprising, this was my first full system build. Although the very nice people at Press F1 Forum talked me through it and I have been problem free (except for having to flash the mother board right at the beginning) until now. EDIT: I just check the forum - this machine has been running faultlessly since May 2014, not bad for a first attempt guys, thanks again.	EFFIGY (12530)
