353765 2005-05-09 23:17:00 In the last month my pc while working properly, suddenly turns off. Power is all off. When I try to restart it, while power is on again (fans working fine, cpu fan ok), windows won't start. I don't even get POSTING and screen is all blakc.
I have tried several tricks. Once I removed cpu fan, reapplied thermal paste and it worked. When it happened again a few days later, I simply moved cpu fan a little. Last night I remove the power supplier, opened it but I could not see anything wrong (not that I am a mechanic or anything). When I put it back in place, the pc worked.

Any ideas? The pc is quite new and honestly I cannot figure out what the problem could be. :confused:

353767 2005-05-10 00:16:00 one very comman fault is dodgy power supplies. take the pc back if you can and if the power supply is the usuall elcheapo nasty crap do your self a favour and install a decent one.

the other thing is loose power connections.
