Sometimes the system boots fine, no errors, works smoothly.
Sometimes the system powers but doesn't boot, screen times out, CPU_LED error.
- If this happens, I switch the mains off and then on, this is the solution...sometimes first time, sometimes after 20 minutes of trying.
& then the worst scenario, I reset the mains power, and the PC is dead, power button does nothing.
I am hoping its a fault with the PSU, as al other components are less than 2 years old but the power supply is nearing 8 years old.
What do you think? I have checked the RAM, GPU and al connections, all seems to be fine, so I don't really know where to go from here to achieve an accurate diagnosis.
