Hello guys, my PC has this problem of sometimes shutting down and not booting again. Normally, I have to stop using it for a few hours or days before it boots normally (power LED doesnt light before power button is pressd) but its getting annoying. Lately, its been happening again after seemingly going back to normal for a few weeks. This problem started when the motherboard was just a few months old.
Symptoms:
When plugged in and the PSU and AVG switches are turned on, the green motherboard standby LED lights up as well as the motherboard power LED even though I havent pressed the case power button yet. Normally, the power LED should only light up after the case power button is pressed.
things I have tried:
testing PSU values
reassembling the parts on a nonconducting surface
cleaning and reapplying thermal paste on the processor
cleaning and reattaching RAM
cleaning the motherboard
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you
