Help - Booting and SSD Issue

[!TIMMY!]

For a while now sometimes when I press the power button to boot up the PC will power up but it won't boot (nothing is displayed on the monitor). Pressing reboot or clearing the CMOS normally sorts it for a little while. Also my Raid 1 Samsung F3's degraded and I bought a new HD to replace the one I thought had died but the Raid kept degrading.

Then I bought a OCZ 60GB 2E and put it in and took the Samsung's out (fresh install I thought could be good). Left the Bios as Raid (instead of ACHI) and Windows 7 said it couldn't install onto it because the SSD wasn't bootable. Cleared CMOS and then Windows decided that everything was ok and installed. Installed some drivers and rebooted, it seemed to be fine. Left it on for a few hours and came back and my pc was off. Pressed the power button and it wouldn't boot again. Cleared CMOS and now it wont see the SSD in the Integrated Peripherals boot order menu.

I thought it could be my PSU so I tested my PC with another PSU. Still same problems with booting up and SSD.

Is my motherboard failing? Is it possible it could be the ram or graphics card?

From your sig it looks like you are overclocking your CPU, RAM and 5870?
If so, go into your BIOS and revert eveything back to Stock and see if you can boot.

Also what make and wattage is your PSU? If its a bit crap and you are testing with another one that is also a bit crap then you will still get the same results I'm afraid.

You can test your RAM with memtest.
Do you have another graphics card (or borrow a mate's card) you could try?
Good luck.

I have an Enermax 625w PSU, I bought a new Mobo, CPU and Ram and my PC seems to be working fine now (fingers crossed). It looks like it was the motherboard as all my problems recently were related to the motherboard.
