Ongoing booting issue, please help!
New computer worked like a charm for the first month or so.
Went to go install new video card - computer then boots for a couple of seconds and turns off... and tries again and again automatically with the same results.
I take out the motherboard (while keeping everything but the gpu + case fans plugged in) and works normally.
I put everything back in and it works.
Fast forward two weeks later and now I am putting in new ram. Same issue. While taking out the motherboard allowed it to boot normally, putting it back in did not fix the issue this time.
It is clearly a mounting issue of some kind, as taking out the gpu or case fans won't fix the issue. I am assuming it has to do with the motherboard and the case as I feel I have eliminated everything else. That said.. I can't figure out what would cause this.
I don't know if the models would help, as the computer has worked fine otherwise. Is it a matter of metal touching the motherboard somewhere? That really feels like bad design if that is the cause.
Any help would be great - thanks!
