So to begin with, My PSU was acting up.
It would emergency shut down/restart my PC whenever it would get too hot, or whenever I played high detailed games.
The fan would stop now and then, but one night, a loud bang/spark came out of it, some smoke. My PC wouldn't start at all.
Today, I bought a new PSU: CiT Active 85 500W Power Supply 80 Plus Bronze
And connected it all up. I even bought a new powercord and tried different plug sockets to test it.
Unfortunately, it wouldn't work. The only difference this time is that the green light on the motherboard comes on, which never happened with my old one (after it shorted).
I've been looking everywhere, I've read people having this problem but then replacing the PSU works for them. My pc had 12GB ram originally, but I had to sell 4gb to buy the PSU, listed above.
So now I have 8GB and a new PSU.
Can anyone help me here please?
