Pc Wont Turn On.......

[knutmagne78]

Hello! I have a problem with my pc, it works fine when its on,
gaming benchmarks runs flawlessly, the temps on both cpu and gpu are good.
The problem comes when i turn the pc completely off, it wont turn on again.
Theres a green light on the motherboard so there seems to be power from the psu
but nothing happens when i press the power button.
I turn off the power button on the psu, unplugg the power cable and leave it off for a few hours.
Then it turns on again, sometimes it takes 1 hour, sometimes it takes a night and it will turn on in the morning.
I have ordered a new psu and while im waiting im afraid to turn the computer off.
Do you think its the psu?

Please post the voltage for the 12 volt. Also how many fans do you have?

[knutmagne78]

I dont know how to post the voltage for the 12 volts, i have 2 fans in the front of the case, 1 in the side panel and two in the top pushing air through the corsair h100i, a total of 5 fans.

Ok ..usually speedfan has a reading for the 12 volt. According to speedfan there is just one fan running.
Ok download and run this… Download HWMonitor - MajorGeeks

please go thru the options until you find the voltages and post that,the 12 volt should be in this one.

I cant risk restarting the pc now, im afraid it wont start again. I have ordered a new psu and will get it in a few days. I will leave my pc on until i have it. Thanks for the help so far!

I would suggest,that you keep an eye on the heat that may increase . If the heat keeps going up i would suggest that you shut the pc. At this point it does sound like a component in the psu is failing.

[knutmagne78]

Ok i will do that, good to know! Thanks again! I hope the new psu does the trick!

Please keep us updated.

[knutmagne78]
