Hello, I am new here but am hoping I can get some help.
When I play a certain game (have done virus / spyware scan and pc is clean, game is system resource intenesive though.)at random times the PC will just switch off. (power light blinking on and off)
I have to unplug it from the mains for about 5 seconds to stop the light.
But if I just switch it back on, it starts to power up then after 2 seconds switches straight back off again.
To get it to come back on completely I have to unplug the power from one of my Harddrives.
Same happens if I just switch the pc off, I have to unplug one of the harddrives to be able to switch it back on.
Now is this the HD failing, or is it fault with the PSU?
Any help is much appreciated
Thanks
James
