Hi,
So a build I've had for the last 1.5 has recently been causing me some issue. It started when I was using the computer to browse the web it kept restarting and powering up. Eventually it stopped restarting, so dumbfounded I pressed the power button it tried to turn on but it would either A. make it to the BIOS screen with the ASROCK symbol, or B. make it to the windows screen or C. it would make it to neither and just blank out before either of those 2 stages were reached.
I was able to use my computer all last night, there was no quarrel the issue went away for a few days but this morning it wouldn't turn on it kept rebooting, there was absolutely no luck. I unplugged some hardware and plugged her back in with just the motherboard, and CPU plugged in everything seemed to work. (of course I had no screen I only had 2 things plugged in the mobo, and CPU.) I unplugged the screen etc.
I did more troubleshooting today, I used the good ol' paperclip test with NOTHING plugged in just the paper clip... and then I tried plugging in a few of my case fans and once I did that it wouldn't turn on. I only knew the fans were on for a milisecond of power because well the LED blue turned on.
Do you guys think my PSU is faulty? =/ it turned on fine with just the paperclip.
