I had this problem another time, and I replaced the PSU which costed 230 Dollars. Now 2 months later I have the very same problem, and I don't want to buy a new PSU at all. I [strike]don't want to believe [/strike] I refuse to accept that 2 power supplies can stop working in 2 months.

Well, I said GPU because it is pretty much the biggest and heaviest extension card in almost any PC, so there is a possibility that under its own weight the PCI-E graphics card can lose contact with the PCI-E slot. Just take it out and put it back on.

The PSU is quite pricey; what make/model is it...

Yes It has, but I am tired of dealing with sending packages etc. and things like that. Going to a LAN party tomorrow, and I am in urgent need of getting this fixed ASAP.

Please give it a shot and try another power cable.

Disconnect the power cable from the PSU and check all connections to the motherboard.

Check if the graphics card didn't came loose from the PCI-E slot.

Also it could be the front power switch or the PSU's power switch (the PC worked in a dust-free environment?)

Just unplugged every PCI cable that wasn't required. Ended up with CPU and motherboard pci only. Does the GPU has anything to do with this? Because I have never had a problem with my GPU, and the last time i had to chjange the PSU it worked by swapping the PSU, I didn't have to wiggle or move around on the GPU. But yeah still no luck. Tried to switch to the Power cable which I use on my monitor (Which works), no success so far.
