I really need some help. I've been searching the Internet for over 24 hours trying to fix my computer problem but to no avail. It sometimes turns on enough so I can go to the desktop so it can shut off again. I tried a system restart and I know the CPU is not over heating. Unless the computer is in safe mode, it won't instantly turn off then turn back on a few seconds later.

EDIT: My computer build is located herehttp://

I'd still give it a try. Maybe your cpu stopped using the integrated graphics or something. I don't know much about integrated graphics, only that the only reason most people use them is if you still want to use your computer for simple tasks when you're having GPU problems.

My specs are in the first message, I added them in an edit, and my processor is usually around 36C

I don't currently have a graphics card, and the computer started doing this about 2 days ago when I tried to play a game. Also I recently moved it to a new location but I tried different outlets (even the one that worked before) but still nothing. The one thing I noticed though is that I was using a power cable that transferred 125Volts while the one that came with the PSU was 300Volts so I don't know if that was the problem(I switched the cable back as soon as I noticed)

The thing is is that I was using the computer fine for a good 5 months before this happened so I don't think the issue would be because of a graphics card

I brought my computer into a local computer repair store and after the person there checked the power supply, it passed the tests but when we turned it on it repeated so we tried a new power supply and it works now
