*tears hear out* Brand New System won't boot!
I have only just purchased a Dell Dimension 2300 desktop pc, and already the damn thing is playing up. I was in the middle of playing "Battlefield 1942" when it froze. I then held the "on" button on for 8-10 seconds so it would shut down. When I attempted to reboot, I had a screen asking for me to yadayada in safe or normal. I chose "run in normal mode", when it just hanged there.
Now whenever I attempt to boot the computer I have little disk activity, and the monitor power light blinks as if it doesn't recognise the computer is on. I have tried the monitor on my other computer and it works, however my other monitor does the same thing with this stupid Dell.
It is a brand new system (two days old) and I just don't know what to do. Please help...
