    My computer was on for 3 days (but only with Vista running, nothing else). Today I started browsing Internet and after 10 minutes computer stopped responding to mouse/keyboard. I tried to restart it, but after 5 seconds (display is still black) it restarts again. I tried a different memory, and it's the same. When there is no memory inside, the screen stays black, but it doesn't restart.

    One second after restart a LED for HDD is shining and then it turns off.

    Could you help me?..
