Hi all

I want to check this out fully before I RMA my PSU. Built PC on desk to instal OS while I was waiting for case to arrive. PC worked fine but been having trouble getting to boot now. PC powers on but instantly turns off, checked all plugs and cables and it works. 10 mins later it though doesn't. Pulled out PSU, tried jumping it with some fans attached and nothing. Just tred jumping it again and it worked. I have some random unbranded psu which plugged in and rig seems to be working. I figure it id PSU due to not wotking when jumped but want to check that it couldn't be something else.

Thanks, Greboth.

Edit: Habit of having spec in sig made me miss it. It isn't one in sig that works fine. Rig in question is:
Intel i3 2120
8 Gb (2x4gb) Corsair Ram XMS 3
ASRock H61M-ITX H61
350w BeQuiet PSU (System Power S6 BN08)
