Computer Problem

Hi all... I do not know very much about building, fixing or maintaining computers and after searching the internet for help, and been unsuccessful, I have decided to join a forum and ask you guys...

The Problem

When I plug the tower in at the wall and press the on button at the front, it just sits there with the green light on and does nothing... I switch it off and wait five minutes and try again (nine time out of ten it works the second time) but once it loads up and I have logged in it switches its self of and just ticks with the orange light flashing on and off. the only way I can successfully use my computer if I take the internet cable out of the back but that it not very practical seeing as though that’s what I want to get out of my computer.

From this, can anyone give me any help?? :(



Thanks, Corey.
 
It sounds like a Power Supply Unit problem, or a really screwy Mother Board. What kind of system is it and did you add/remove any parts from it?
 
Sounds like your motherboard is shorting out, since you disconnect ethernet cord and your fine. Was this a prebuilt or did you build it yourself?
 
I personally did not build the computer but my mate did... i added a card with extra USB holes about 3 months ago
