Hi All,
I have bit of a strange cold boot issue. After being left off for a number of hours my PC will not cold boot until it has warmed up (~5 min). This started 3 days ago after 2.5 years of rock steady performance. The power light is constant.
After POST (no errors, no beeps) the system runs perfectly. It will warmboot (restart) without issues. In some cases it will cold boot start when the powerbar is turned on (without clicking my power button) after being off. It really is not consistent.
I have verified that all plugs and connections are seated correctly, run memory checks. I do not have spare PSU to test. Power levels seems to be adequate and the voltages are well within stock tolerances.
Is this the sign of a failing PSU? a weak CMOS battery, Bad ram, a bad Mobo or a bad power switch.
System
C2D 6850
OCZ stream 850W
Asus P5n32_E
4Gig OCA PC6400
Asus 8800 GT
2x HDDS
