it means you have a major issue, if you want a more detailed response, then you will have to supply more information

HI there

The PC seems to basically work though so not major enough to stop it.. I've run the extended system tests and all good.. Took out memory, swapped PSU from another device but still..

 

The red power button is on immediately it's switched on.. long before bios or anything starts..
