[SOLVED] Problem with PC: Turns on for a split second then immediatily turns off

[markusbug]

Hi,
So my PC was working fine and never had a problem, but yesterday suddenly I couldn't boot the PC. When I looked inside, I saw, that the motherboard light comes on and the fans start to spin for a split second, then everything is off again.

I am not a PC specialist so any help is good!

Welcome to the forums

a full list of your specs is helpful for future reference.
the video answered my question about the PSU, a VS 450.
do you have access to another PSU you could test with?
ensuring good power is the first step with this kind of issue.

I don't have another psu to test. I am pretty sure that the PSU is working.
Motherboard is Gigabyte AB350M
CPU is Ryzen 5 1600
GPU is NVidia gtx 1060 3GB

The only way to know is to try another PSU. This is why troubleshooting a system is an elimination process. With power issues you start with the PSU.

the video looks to my eyes like the PSU is powering itself on, hitting the load of the computer and shutting down again.
sometimes a PSU can only power itself, and it looks like that.

Is there any way I can fix this?

another PSU.
you need another PSU to test the current PSU, swap out the PSU and in a minute you will know.
