Okay im gonna try my best to explain this problem.

Okay my computer turns on, like everything is on fans are spinning etc. Problem is thats this is as far as it goes, doesnt go to the boot screen where the window xp loading thing is and the mobo screen. my monitor isnt even on, so is my keyboard/mice.

it was working properly earlier today. Happened few times during today but it worked after i pressed reset button not it doesnt even seem to work.!

Btw this computer is around 3weeks old.

dodgy memory or motherboard by the sounds of it. What memory do you use? (brand)

Check everything is fitted and wired properly and then if it does not work i would check the cpu and memory are not faulty.If there both fine then it could be a motherboard or Bios problem. If the cpu and memory are ok by checking them on another mobo if possible.You might want to try removing the cmos battery for 10 seconds to set the bios to default.If this does not work take take it back and get a replacement.
