Basically it powers on, runs fine for a bit then shuts off. Stays off for around 1-2 minutes and then Turns back on. It will not turn on even if I press the power button until that 1-2 minutes is up.

That's a terrible PSU. Replace it before further troubleshooting. You can't troubleshoot with such a bad PSU.

I can’t afford one right now. This issue just started and I’ve had this PSU for years now. Can you think of any other troubleshooting I can do?

Could you recommend one?
