Sounds like it's probably the power supply. The computer takes more power to boot up than to run, so if it can't get enough wattage it can't boot all the way up, and it will shut down and try again.

If you're comfortable opening your computer up, you can test the power supply connectors with a voltmeter or multimeter to verify. A new power supply is typically only $30 or $40.

Testimonial: "Thanks a million! I suspected it was something related, but having just purchased the computer from Tiger Direct, I was under the impression that all equipment was properly tested and verified to be in working condition. I will simply return and have them ship out another. Thanks again! DC"

Ethernet, Multimedia, Video Controller is not recognized

IBM has the worst site I have seen so far for driver downloads. I have posted a link for you to go to IBM. You'll have to go through the downloads & find what you need. Like Lan drivers, audio drivers, video & so forth. You may find a restore CD download. You do not want to install the restore CD. Just pull the drivers off of it. http://www.ibm.com/search/?v=14&en=utf&lang=en&cc=us&hpp=10&catx=Y1zkzPz66zazbAzNA&q=ThinkCentre+A50p&cp=top&lv=c&cat=P9&x=10&y=10
Good luck, this will take some time but should also work for you!
