I posted about this a while back on here and on reddit twice now, I still have not found a solution to this. My new Win 10 computer will suddenly restart with no errors and then, upon restarting, will just kick the LEDs on a couple times and maybe go to the log in screen. When it gets there, it will stay on for maybe 2-3 minutes after I log in and restart the process (sometimes not even making it to the log in screen). However, it gets a bit trickier. Sometimes it will do this after being shut down successfully, but will just kick the LEDs on 2-3 times maybe more and then shut back down, it will repeat this until I shut it off from the power supply in the back.

I originally thought this was a displayport feedback issue but I changed the cable for an accel dp 1.4 cable and that didn't solve anything. I thought this was the problem due to the fact I accidentally bumped my kitten into the cable and that is when it started doing it then. After switching the cable out, it stopped for a day because I had been turning it off from the power supply in the back after shutting it down for the night to prevent it doing this while sleeping. It was fine until the 2nd day after changing the cable, that night I was playing Fortnite and in discord on call with some friends. It then did the flashing LED thing again, so the DP cable didn't help.

At this point, I have no idea what to do, I've searched a bit but I feel like I may be missing something due to the way it restarts and does it when it's supposed to be off.
