Hi all,
I have a 6 year old PC that used to work till last year. I use it only once in a while as I have a laptop. I switch off the power supply when not in use. Recently when I tried to switch it on by pressing the power button, it didn't start. When I pressed the reset button, it started and worked for 10 mins and then it switched off. When I try to start again, this time it worked for 2-3 mins and switched off again. I waited for some time and pressed reset button and the above repeats. I checked connections to my hard drive and removed and reinstalled RAM. I would like to know if this is a SMPS issue or problem with motherboard?
