Hello party people, Captain Kim speaking, except it's Jannis and we're not going to Ibiza. Today I received a Wiko 2 Pro from a Friend, who apparently pressed the Power button repeatedly. When she tried to turn it back on, it got stuck in a boot loop. I tried Vol. Up for recovery and Vol. Down...

Hi everyone, I'm curreny having issues booting my system, which I'm hoping is just psu related. Basically, when I turn the computer on, everything lights up for a second or 2, fans spin then it turns off. It will turn on again and just repeat the above. If I take a stick of ram out it boots...
