I got all the parts for my new computer today, and started building it. When I tried to power t on for the first time, it booted, even posted, but about 30 seconds later it shut off. I began removing components to see if it was a problem with my Ram, video card, etc. It gotten to the point where I have nothing connected to the motherboard but the 24pin power connector, the 4pin power connector and the cpu fan. No difference.
Now, as of a few minutes ago, it wont even turn on for a few seconds. The power indicator on the motherboard is on before I pres the ower button, but when I press it, the computer turns on for a split second and then shuts off. The motherboards power light turns off at this point and then comes back on a split second after.
Is this a problem you've heard of? Is it fixable or do I have to do some returns?
It seems this could be either a DOA motherboard or DOA PSU. What do you think?
