Hey peeps!
My computer turns on alright.. sometimes.. but wait 5 seconds and it switches off again..
An i keep trying..
Then Eventually the power button does nothing.

I tried disconnecting the POWER SW plug on the computer. an used a screw driver to short circut the 2 pins to boot it up. However this also did nothing.

I think it might b the Power Supply.. But not 2 sure an dont wanna waste my money on it..

After a while of doing random stuff. it eventually boots up. dont know y tho.

Any1 hav any suggestions??
thnx
 
Could be a motherboard problem, but power supplies are cheaper to try first. Using a screw driver like you did could have fried the motherboard
