    Dell XPS 15Z restart at logo no access to bios no boot

    Hello, this machine starts up, displays logo and goes off and powers again and start at the logo and goes off again and so on, its cycling. If you try to enter the bios it also restarts, if you want to boot from cd or hd it also restarts. does anyone have a bios dump?

    Sounds like a loose connection. It may be a bad primary cap in the PSU.

      it looks more that the bios is corrupted, for example if you do cmos clear it says date and time error if you dont touch anything it will be there forever and never goes off but i will see and heat the board

        Sounds like it could be bad caps on the board.

                      with the cmos date and time error, replace cmos battery only.
                      check if restarts go away...

                      if not
                      auto restarting pc comes with many possible issues.
                      -it could be a faulty or dirty ram pins/ram slot
                      -thermal issue
                      and few other issues not related to yours

                          Ok the fault was from the LAN IC, a small chip labelt atheros close to the lan port, not everything is fine, i just removed it.
