Background:
A few weeks ago my comp had issues starting with flickering lights on boot. Sometimes it didnt boot at all. However, if it was already on, nothing out-of-the-ordinary happened.
i had no idea what was happening, so i just left it and after coming back later, it booted fine. This has happened about three times, and now it has refused to boot for several days.
I tested my PSU using the guidelines on the OCZ forums, and it seems to work.
Current Situation:
However, when everything is plugged in, everything refuses to start. nothing except flickering of power lights.
Even when the computer is off, the power light can flicker, so i leave it unplugged.
If anyone has any ideas about what to try next, I'd love to hear them. Otherwise, I'm looking for a cheap board with these things:
socket LGA 775
1 or 2x PCI-E
(Intel & Nvidia compatability)
must be RAID configurable
I'm willing to buy used, but would definitely require a reputable dealer.
Many Thanks.
