Re: Is this PSU or M-board?

At times my computer won't start up until I shut off the PSU switch in
the back or unplug from wall long enough for lights on the board to go

So I am leaning towards power supply.

I do not get any other errors or lock-ups.

Thoughts?




Knowledge is like money, the less you talk about it the more people assume you have.

Be aware that the only things that completely shuts most late model computers down are the rocker switch on the power supply or unpluging the AC power cord. Some lockups interfere with the low power scans of the front panel reset and power buttons. You might be experiencing some sort of lockup during the operating system's shutdown cycle without realizing it.
