Hi
Have strange issue on my old PC that son uses for minecraft.
IF the PC has not been on for a while, say 3 days, when you try to power up it briefly tries (1-3Secs) and then stops, sometimes has another brief try (1-2sec) then stops.
The fans in the PSU are going.
The fan on the CPU and case all start up, but then stop when (I guess) the PSU fails to supply the juice.
The strange thing is if the PC is used daily it fires up first time every time and do not have any issues with use.
When it's in this cold state I basically have to keep flicking the on/off switch on the PSU and attempt to start again, can take hours though. Even took days after a 2 week holiday away :*(
Any ideas?
Thanks
