[SOLVED] Computer crashes when starting windows 10

I just built my PC a week ago and today while I was gaming my PC randomly crashed. When I went to turn it back on it got to the gigabyte loading screen and then it said "preparing automatic repair". After that the windows loading circle pops up for a second and then my CPU fan turns off and my screen goes to a no signal screen. My case cooling fan and graphics card fan stay on and my motherboard lights are still on but it won't boot up. I have only downloaded a few games and some programs like Spotify and discord so I don't think it's malware and my power goes no where near max power for it to shut down my CPU fan. Please help

I built my computer about one week ago and everything since then has been running smoothly until last night when i was gaming and my computer turns off out of the blue. I tried to turn it back on but as soon as the "preparing automatic repair" pops up, the monitor goes to a no input screen and the CPU fan turns off, but everything else keeps running. I can access the boot and BIOS menu and keep it on indefinitely but as soon as windows 10 starts loading it turns off. I have only downloaded popular programs like spotify, steam, twitch and the blizzard launcher so i don't think its something like malware. Please help.
