UPDATE: I've swapped over the PSU and disconnected the SSD but neither has solved my issue. I've also just gone over it with contact cleaner and this hasn't fixed it either. I've noticed that the TPU led can flicker sometimes. I don't know how long this has been happening. When I switch it...

I'm getting the contact cleaner tomorrow so I'll give this a go. Otherwise I'll try source a different power supply. And thanks bob, I don't really know why I bothered to leave it in there.

That's interesting. Honestly my motherboard pretty clean but maybe I'll take it all apart and give it a good clean. Would a motherboard speaker help? I imagined the pc is not on long enough for it to work, but then again I've never used one.

I've replaced the CMOS battery already. I'll maybe need to look for a new PSU. I've also changed the ram sticks and tried different dimm slots, to no luck. Realistically, it's either the PSU or the motherboard, isn't it?

I have a (at guess) 10 year old system that I built. It's been in use on and off over the years, but last year it shut down and wouldn't start back up. No interest at the time to fix it due to limited use, it went in the cupboard. Now I want to get her up and running again. It's an Asus Z87-A...

I find Amazon do this too.
