Recently I have had a problem with my win 7 pc, another thread I created narrowed the problem down to the psu. The problem is, it takes multiple tries to turn my pc on. Sometimes the fans start up then turn off. Other times it reaches the BIOS ok beep and then shuts down. However once it reaches the login screen it seems to be ok. Is my PSU failing or what? As this is my first build I do not have any other PSU's to try out.

Thanks
