Everytime I turn my PC on, the power and hard drive lights light up for about a second and then turn off. It doesn't matter how many time I press the power button nothing happens. The only way I've got it to boot up is if I hold the power button in for about 10 seconds and release it then press the power button again.. It's not always successful and can take a few goes to get it started. I watched what it does when I press the button with the cover off the case. The fans inside the case spin as if it was going to power up then stop. When it's up and running I have no problems. I've had an error on screen when it has booted "chip not initalized. press any key" Pressed a key and then got "Chip not found. Press any key" Then after a couple of seconds sometimes the hard drive powers up. When I press the key again it boots up. I was thinking it could be the power supply not switching right.. Any other suggestions..
