my pc..

[etrnal-esports.andehh]

when ever i turn my pc on, it just shuts down practically 1 second later, it cant be a overheating prob coz i aint touched it all night...

any ideas? i can only think of it being either Motherboard Prob or... well thats all i think it can be..

anyone help me plzzzzzzz =)

MotherBoard - ASUS M2N4-SLI
Gcard - GeForce 8600 GT
Ram - 2xstick of 512, some cheat ass brand.
harddrive - 250gig SATA, and 80gig IDE but that has nothing at all on it, not even windows.

you could try taking out one component at a time, and then switching it with an older (from another pc), to see which component might be damaged.

i know it sounds stupid, but is the power button stuck? some cases aren't build perfectly (bad button springs) and it'll think your holding the power button down.

[etrnal-esports.andehh]

from what i have been reading, it maybe the PSU, but i cant get the crappy thing out of the motherboard

and i dont think the power button is stuck but ill look again

wait, ur psu is ON your motherboard?!?! or do you mean the chord that plugs into the motherboard is a bit snug?

[etrnal-esports.andehh]

the chord that goes into it

anyway to actucally see if it is the PSU without removing it?

[[1]C/3|Rya.PCDoc]

check that the heatsink is properly on top of your cpu, also that the memory etc is plugged in properly.
i would try switching it on with all your drives unplugged and only one stick of memory in.
does it make any beeps or anything when u turn it on for the second or so its on?

well after spending 4 hours (woo) and after buying a new PSU, still didnt work, then i took sommet out of the motherboard and it powered up but Harddrive/Gcard/Processor didnt work, so then i put it back in and it worked ;s

anyway, thx for help

What was the "sommet" you took out ??

[etrnal-esports.andehh]

um, looked like a piece of lego, like a 4holes in a square or w/e

You probley reset your bios cause what you described sounds like a jumper. I've had similar problems when trying to OC my processor.

did it come from the psu the 4 pice lego bit lol or was it actually off the motherboard ie a jumper

[etrnal-esports.andehh]

yes, the 'bit of lego' came from the PSU
