My system has been working normally without any weird symptoms, but today when I tried to turn it on, it didn't quite work. Right when I push the power button, the power LED comes on, the PSU fan and the HDD starts to spin, but it all shuts off about a second later, and continuously repeats the process a few seconds later. I haven't moved my system or taken it apart since the last time I used it, so I assume something may have gone bad. What do you think? Power supply?

Hi.

Please check your power switch. When you press the switch probably it's stucked in the on position from dirt or other issues, causing the PC to reboot and restart continously. Replace the switch, or change it with the reset switch by changing their places in motherboard, without placing the suspected switch in place.

I have a power switch built in on the motherboard, tried using that too. The system isn't dusty by any means, and it's only two months old. But I'm not surprised by this motherboard, had one fail in less than 5 minutes before I got this one as a replacement.
