This sounds similar to my problem guys.
my computer just turns on for .5 to 1 sec (all 4 fans, lights, cd drive)
then switches off, this happens two to 3 times. then nothing but the front lights stay on.
only unlike the other posts here, my computer has been working fine for 6 months since i last opened the case, i havn't changed anything! it was turned on fine yesterday, then just died mid game (My partner was furious, she was the one using it for a change) now it's my task to fix.
here's the specs
foxconn motherboard running a pentium d 3.0ghz cpu, 3gb ddr2 ram, samsung 1tb sata hdd, gforce 8400gs
i tried unplugging the 2 extra fans, the hdd and dvd and resetting the bios too, tried removing the ram one piece at a time, nothing worked.
i'm thinking psu.
please help!!
