Hello guys,

I have a serious question.

I just got me a new computer.

PSU: be quiet dark power pro 11
Mobo: Asus maximus X code
CPU: 8700k
Gpu: strix 1080ti
Cooler: 150i pro
Rams: g skill trident z RGB

My problem:

When I go work:

After turning my pc off I usually trip my mains ( power switch main socket on wall).
[When I come home from an 8 - 10 hours shift and trip the main wall socket and want after try to turn on my pc it won't let me. It takes a few attempts pressing the pc power button to actually turn on my system]

When I go sleep:

I turn pc off but leave mains on.

[After 8 hours of sleep Pc turns on normal next morning]

Haven't tested pc going to work and leave the mains switched on.

It's just acting weird if I turn off the main switch on wall socket for a longer period, if it's just for a minute or 2 the pc starts normal as well.

Anyone can help me and explain me my problem since I'm a bit confused with this. As everything else works fine, it's just when mains are off for a long time. I have to press the power button a few times to get the pc started.

Thanks a lot

most new mb in the cmos have brown out/power loss settings. most will default to have the person power cycle the mb. if it not the mb or and old bios issue. you may be seeing a power supply issue. with newer mb try clearing the cmos with the power off the mb. see if the mb efi will do a full reset.


No you know plugs in the UK have on the wall socket a power switch this once I trip not my fuse box.

Sorry for the confusion
 


I never said I play with the fuse, why would I?

@smorizio,

So after swapping as well my extension lead the problem remained.

After buying a new Seasonic Prime Ultra 750W Power Supply, Titanium, the problem is gone....

Thanks a lot.
