I posted a couple of days ago regarding my pc freezing whilst playing games. Today however things got worse.
I was watching a video with a game on in the background when all of a sudden my pc shut itself off without warning.
I tried to turn the pc back on but all I got was a second of lights/fans spinning and then it turned off again.
I removed the graphics card and tried again, this time it worked for more than a second, I thought it must be the graphics card. However now the problem has returned, even without the graphics card it still won't work.
I've tried the paperclip test on the psu and the fan spins when powered so it looks unlikely that's the culprit.
I've tried just one stick of ram in different slots, and I've tried no ram. The motherboard doesn't even beep to say there's no gpu/ram it just shuts off after a second.
I've read that maybe the board is shorting on the case but I haven't checked it out yet, can anyone help?
