Whenever I do anything intensive on the computer, specifically the FurMark GPU benchmark the computer will automatically go into sleep mode and it is impossible for it to turn on or off without unplugging the power cord.
The computer was working fine before i started messing around with Dolphin emulator. I used a combination of some graphically intensive settings and then the computer went into sleep mode refusing to turn on or off unless i unplugged the power cable.
Specifically, the monitor will go black, the lights inside the PC will all instantly turn off and all fans will stop moving. In the case of FurMark, the computer will instantly go into sleep as soon as the stress test loads up. The power button will be blinking as if its in sleep mode. As I have stated, the PC will not be able to turn back on or turn off using the power button without unplugging the PC. Turning the PC back on after unplugging the cord is fine and it will start up again just fine until I used fur mark or any graphically intensive program. The power button will blink for a few seconds after being unplugged then shut off completely. Sometimes the PC will not even be doing anything graphically intensive (such as just installing CPU - Z) and it will do the same sleep mode thing. edit: when i use any fur mark stress test/ benchmark the computer will instantly enter sleep mode)

- I'm not sure what the computer case is called with it's a medium tower
- Replaced ram with fresh ram stick, checked with memtest 86 for issues and its in perfect condition
- Replaced power cable with a brand new power cable
- Reinstalled windows (kept previous installation on windows.old)
- Reset bios settings to default
- Did several other tests benchmark tests using MSI kombuster like the plasma particle test and CPU burner, computer did not shut down any time I used these.
- The temperature of the computer does not have the chance to go up and the standby temperatures are safe so we can safely rule out over heating
