Any computer doctors in the house?

it sounds like there might be a problem with the power supply, which is surprisingly cheap and easy to replace. i've replaced power supplies on two of my computers and not paid more than $35 or $40. replacing it is a matter of unscrewing a few screws, unplugging the power supply, and putting a new one in.

of course, if it's not that, it could be literally anything, especially if you're using windoesn't...

and the computer starts beeping at me several times, repeatedly, and then stops.

Go ye here to see what the beeps are trying to tell you.

There will be no killing of the Aly. Although there may be appropriate smacking for taking an 8AM class.

Four beeps = system timer failure, usually, which means your mobo battery is probably dying. It can be replaced.

Well, I didn't count the beeps... there were a lot of them. It just happened 4 times in a row where I had to push the power button and turn the comp. off and on repeatedly until the 5th time it actually came on.
