whenever i try to boot up my system, it will turn on for about two or three seconds, occasionally a little longer before it just shuts off without a warning and then goes into the loop of booting on and off. because of this i haven't even got the chance to install my operating system. is there anyway to solve this without going down to a service center? this is a newly built pc and i have actually asked the place which built my pc, they suggested to remount the ram, i have tried that but it didnt work. i tried starting it up without the ram but the problem persists. i have a feeling it might be the problem of the power supply as everything else lights up and it occasionally gives a bios beep before shutting off when there is enough time. when its shuts off it looks like a power trip kind of thing, it shuts off without a warning. the specs are the ones i currently have in my profile, i hope someone can help me because i really want to use my computer and its new...

Try the following:
1. using 1 pc of memory, swap if fail
2. remove GTX960 and use onboard GPU

At the shop, they boot up to show you to BIOS screen?

i tried powering it up with the onboard gpu, the booting slows down but its still goes into a on and off loop, just that its a longer process, furthermore the bios screen doesnt show when i swap to the onboard gpu, my monitor will have no signal
