> Describe better what you mean by "but failed".
> Did it go through the POST (Power on self-test), the BIOS startup?
> Did Windows start to load? At what point did it fail?

At very early moments. It coudn't even show the very first display of screen.

> What was on the screen when it "failed"?

The screen was dark and preparing to show very first display.

> Did it just totally power off or hang/lock up?

The lights on CPU (green and red) dimmed, blinked and turned off. It all
happened in a span of 3 seconds. The power of CPU turned off totally.

> Did it beep? If so, what were the beeps? (short/long/how many)

No it couldn't find time to do so.

Thanks for concerning!
