    Powering on Desktop PC Starts Twice


    Hello,


    I am seeking an advice on a possible issue with my desktop PC.


    When I start it from having been shut down by pressing the power button, it starts twice. It comes on very briefly, switches off for approximetely five seconds, and then starts again without any problems. The start procedure is very fast, but I have never had a computer before which 'starts twice' in this manner.


    I bought it only a few weeks ago and, so far as I can recall, it has done this from the start. Could this be attributable to Windows fast start up? Alternatively, is it something else related to Windows/the system? I thought I'd check this first, as if it's not any of this, my guess is that it's a question from the manufacturer, rather than Microsoft, but one step at a time.


    Basic Specifications:


    Lenovo Legion T730-281CO

    Core i7-9700@3.60Ghz

    16MB RAM

    Windows 10 Home version 1803


    I can provide more specifications as needed, but I don't know what you need to know to help answer my question, so I thought that I would just start with the basics.


    Thank you in advance.

    :)

  4. Powering on Desktop PC Starts Twice

    Lost Power, now PC won't boot. Powers on and clicks.


    I had tried both of those steps. Neither worked. I have a replacement power supply on order. Should be here on Monday. Thanks for the suggestions.
