 [RESOLVED] Computer fried its self!
When I turn on my computer it turns on and off every second. It sits there and the whole thing turns on and off. What would cause that ? Has anyone had a simmilar experience ? I have since replaced the power supply and it works just fine on my other computer. could it be my mobo ? Its a epox 8KTA3 with a thunderbird 900 in it. would it be from the heat causeing the temprature sensor to turn it off ? like a sensor malfunction? what do you think ?

Possible bad mobo, bad ram , bad anything that plugs into board.
Disconnect all drives and take all peripheral cards. Start there and see what happens.
Would you like fries with that?

No, if you have replaced the power supply and the problem went away then your fine.
You don't need to worry.
Just a bad PS was all.
