My computer showed the blue screen of death regularly for the last week and kept shutting down. I dusted the insides and checked leads and plugs. Then it failed to boot at all. No beeps, monitor showing amber no signal light. At first I thought it was the power supply, but following suggestions to check that noted that the fan was still running inside PSU and then noted that these symptoms could be from faulty memory. I used your system of taking out a memory stick and trying to reboot. Only 2 sticks and on taking out the second one found that the computer rebooted and is working normally. Yay!!! Thank you so much. CP Thank you so much for your troubleshooting suggestions. My computer showed the blue screen of death regularly for the last week and kept shutting down.
