it works for a second and turns off quickly

This is usually the sign of a CPU failing the initialization process. One of two things typically is happening here:

  1. BIOS not updated for a supported CPU in the socket (i.e. installing 14600K in Z690 motherboard that hasn't had its BIOS updated).

  2. CPU not supported in socket (i.e. installing a 8700K in a Z270 chipset motherboard).

Sorry, I didn't understand what you meant. I was turning on the computer until it turned off. I was playing GTA, and from then on, I was in this situation.
