Hey,
In a net shell i can't power up my computer with the CPU seated.
I've bench tested my motherboard, testing each component at a time and it powers up perfectly until i try my CPU by its self.
Assuming the CPU was fried i brought a used CPU on ebay for 20 pounds, seated it into the motherboard and the same problem persists until the CPU is removed
I've tested the Power supply unit with a multimetre and it seems to be givinig the correct reading including on the 4 pin.
I've looked at the motherboard for imperfections and it seems fine, no burnt compositors or chips
For what is worth i'm running;
Motherboard: ASUS P5N-e SLI
CPU: Intel duo core 2 6400
PSU: ATX 500 watt (win power?)
Video Card: Geforce GT series
Additional information:
Computer hasn't been used much in the past 2 year so i restored it the day it stopped working
the computer switched off while playing a game as if the power button well held in
