Generally, after sitting on for what appears to be an endless time, the device will suddenly stop without warning. Pressing the restart button brings it back online, but it attempts to boot three times before finally starting properly. Once it reaches the Windows screen (Windows 10), it shuts down again. I’m not sure what’s causing this or whether I should investigate further. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

What power source do you possess?
You may attempt these options:
1. Execute sfc /scannow via an elevated command prompt.
2. Perform a memtest.

Frequent spontaneous resets before and after startup, followed by additional resets during or after booting, resemble a common PSU issue: insufficient power stability prevents a consistent POST and boot process.

It also seems like a PSU issue. Try to get a PSU from another place or bring it to a repair shop where they might ask for a fee to test it. Alternatively, you could risk purchasing a new one, though it might not fix the problem.

What power supply do you have? You can try these two options:
1. Execute sfc /scannow in an elevated command prompt.
2. Perform a memtest.
No results were found with either test. It seems like the issue might be related to the power supply.

Nothing was detected with either test. It seems the issue might be related to the PSU. I didn’t consider it before, as I hadn’t heard of it during booting. Which power supply do you have?

You can try these two things:
1. Run a sfc /scannow in elevated cmd prompt.
2. Do a memtest.
Nothing was found with either scan. I'm guessing it's what the others are saying that it is a PSU problem?
I honestly didn't even think about the psu, because I've never heard of that before while booting. What psu do you have?
It is about a 3 year old PSU that is 1000W a Rosewill model.

This PSU looks excellent and shouldn't cause any issues. Make sure to run a chkdsk /f on your boot drive.

That's a very good PSU. It shouldn't be giving you problems. Run a chkdsk /f on your boot drive.
