My computer wont start up straight away, when holding down the start button it revvs like an engine and after 3 minutes if I am lucky it will turn on.
The computer is an emachines about 2 years old and this has intermittantly happened over the las t6 months now it just wont start.
I have checked all the usual things such as power supply loose wires cleaned out the cooling fans but it hasn't helped.
I dont know if this has anything to do with the problem but the system used to hang for a while before loading windows, again loads of memory & minimal start up programmes yet it still hangs.

Jump to PostOpen your pc case. I think the whirring sound comes from the rotating fans (processor fan, power supply fan, video card fan, and the case fan). Observe their rotational speed.
