alienware x51 r2 - random crashes, looped start up
okay so i have had my desktop for a years and two months not had a problem until now.
so i have upgraded to windows 10 all was fine for a few days then my problems started.
my pc will just randomly shut down, first it was when i was watching netflix. then it was i was just browsing the internet, now its just whenever it feels like it.
sometimes i will get a bluescreen, sometime my pc just hangs there and sometimes it just goes off the. the only commonality is that when it off it tries booting up again.
by try i mean the leds come on a fan sounds, i get a beep then it just goes off again.
it can do this a couple of times then start normally sometimes it can try twenty times.
this problem is becoming more frequent, originally happened a week apart and then i thought it went away but last night it did it 5 times just i finally got sick of trying to do anything on it i just didn't bother trying again.
any help would be appreciated, i have added a link to a video of it trying to start.

You don't happen to have another power supply do you? I read another post where the same symptoms happened to be a failing power supply.
