Wondered what peoples thoughts were on the following.
Last night my computer suddenly stopped, then was unable to reboot again. When I press the power button, all that happens is the PSU clicks once and the case and CPU cooler fans spin for half a second only.
The computer in question is the one in my signature, and it was built around 7 months ago and not been disturbed since. The computer ran stock with a slight undervolt on vcore and SOC voltages. The Quadro graphics card is a P620 that takes power from the motherboard only and only draws around 40w, I mention as expect peak wattage on the system is around 200w only.
With the power connected, I do have power from USB ports, I know this as I have a blue yeti microphone that is showing it's LED flashing. Also the orange light for the RJ45 is occasionally flashing, so motherboard has power before computer starts.
To diagnose the only things done so far was remove my Asus STX II, disconnect power from a DVD burner, and remove all USB leads, starting the computer was exactly the same with a single click from the PSU and fans spinning for half a second only. I have temporally removed the BIOS battery to reset BIOS but this again made no difference.
My thoughts at the moment, either the PSU has failed, or there is a short that's cutting the power. Does anyone have any other thoughts on what could have happened.
