    Weird Bootup Problem..


    Hi,
    I've been having some problem with my pc recently.
    I built it 2 months ago and had no problem with it until recently.

    When I shut down the computer, after a few hours when I turn it back on, it won't boot. All the fans graphic card and hdd are on, but no beep signal. But when I turn off the power supply and turn it back on it boots fine. Another thing I noticed is that if I shut down the computer and maybe wait 10 min and turn it back on it works.

    I suspect maybe the psu or the Motherboard but I'm not sure since I have no other problem and it used to work fine.

    Hope you guys can help

    Here are the specs CPU-Z Validator 3.1

    I'd suspect your power supply before your motherboard. I don't know of any power supply diagnostics other than simply diagrams.

    Looking at your specs, I see your running an OCZ 600w PSU. I would be shocked and amazed if that PSU was failing. I would suspect a bad connection somewhere before I went pointing a finger at an OCZ product. I have purchased many OCZ products, and not one has failed me yet. I'm not saying it can't happen, but it's pretty rare. Check all your connections.

    Agreed. I have a 600W OCZ. Best PSU I've ever seen for the price. It's almost bullet-proof.

    I'm running one in my primary rig as well [see specs]. I swear by OCZ products.

    I do too. I was using the platinum 800 RAM sticks and loved 'em. The ones I have now were a gift (thanks mom) and were cheaper than the OCZ 1066 ones at the time. They're nice, but I had to RMA the first set. I should have put in the extra for OCZ.

    If OCZ started making motherboards, they'd be unreal.

    RAM has got to be listed right up there in the ranks for the perfect gift. Gotta' love Mom for that one! So yeah, I would use them too. Plus it's the whole thing that Mom bought them for you. Gotta' use them!

    OCZ memory modules is the only brand I buy anymore. If I can't currently afford it, then I wait until I can [while constantly checking for sales]. There is simply no substitute for OCZ memory. When they started making PSU's, I jumped on those too. And yes, if they started making motherboards, my next rig [I want a socket AM3, with a quad core Phenom] would be a total OCZ build.

    OK, basically I found a workaround so that I don't have to reset my PSU every-time I start my pc.
    Instead of shut-down I just hibernate the computer and when I turn it on it works. I'm still curious of what might be causing the problem.
