Default random boot failure with new board and CPU

no spam wrote:
Hello,

I am experiencing an intermittent problem of my PC failing to boot. Other
than the boot CDROM light blinks for a few seconds, the problem occurs with
only the fans going. There is no initial post, just a black screen. The
monitors power light shows no activity.

This does not occur at every boot but when it does, if I hit the reset
button a few times it eventually kicks the system into life and it boots up
without any further problems.


What is the wattage of the PSU and is it of a reasonable quality?
Try a different one anyway, if you have one available.

Lee
