Ok, so here's the thing... last night I put my computer on standby mode (it's not a laptop by the way)... then the next day, I press the power button on the machine to power it up and all I hear is my CPU fan going nuts (normally i can barely hear the CPU fan while the computer's on, but this time I could really hear that CPU fan spinning like crazy).
That sort of scared me so I shut down the computer and waited about 5-6 minutes for it to cool down a bit. Next thing I know, I try turning on the computer and the monitor doesnt respond (its still in standby mode).... The computer itself is on and running and everything, but the screen is black. So I turn off the computer again and wait a few more minutes... I power it back up and I get to the POST screen where it gives me a message saying:
"Warning System Boot Fail" and it gives me the choice of 'F1 to continue' or 'DEL to enter BIOS'...
What could that possibly be? I have my computer up and running now (it's working fine as it booted right into windows after that POST message). I'm still scared on what I could have possibly have done to damage my computer (it's fairly new as I built it about a week ago).
Thank you everyone!
