You see, you are still full of ideas

Same - start and shutdown.
you see this is why i think its a psu problem it should hang there and beep (it will only beep if you have a mini speaker connected to the mobo or if it has one built in) but then again the mobo could be at fault....sigh....
Bloody midnight again 

have you tried taking the g-card out and trying the pc with the onboard g-card
I have done that paper clip test.?
I'm thinking about going to some PC repair shop tomorrow morning before I call overclockers. They might be willing to test MB and PSU or at least board.
