Im having some trouble with my computer recently. sometimes when I try to boot insted of the computer going on the lights flicker and I hear a buzzing noise. also, the tempature gauge moves slowly like it's trying to boot but just can't... other times when I am able to boot normally everything is fine until i shut down - when I try to start up again nothing works until I flick the killswitch on the power supply off and on then everything might work okay.
I took it to my local techs and they said it could be the power supple (I have a BFG Tech 650W) or it could be my mother board (ASUS AN8 SLI Deluxe) but I think it is the power supply. Have the computer hooked up to a APC UPS backup. this all started after we had a pretty vbad storm when the power went off for an hour or so. the computer wasn't on at the time but it was still hooked up to the backup.
any input or help you can give is appreciated.
