Order no. 348153 Delivered 3 September 2010
See spec below.
Perhaps I should have flagged this earlier but from first switch on the PC has not immediately booted up. After switch on the fans start, there is one beep then it comes up with Asus boot loading message but just sits there... doesn't matter how long I wait it just doesn't boot. So press Reset and the PC restarts the fans, one beep, loading message and then up comes the Asus title screen and we are away.
Irritating, but I was keen to use the new machine for work every day so I put up with it.
This morning, just under a month after delivery, I switch on but there's no beep or boot. Because nothing has loaded there is no reset - just a blank screen. All the fans are kicking in but for some reason the motherboard is not booting.
Is there anything I can do this end to try and diagnose the problem?
I will return it if I must, but every time it travels it risks damage and I have my work on the hard drive [backed up thankfully].
