Zebronics makes TERRIBLE power supply units. I would recommend changing out your power supply and seeing if that helps. Take it from someone who had a cheap PSU destroy their PC.

 

My guess is that the capacitors in the PSU are going bad, and holding charge after you turn your computer off. Therefore, when you go to immediately turn it back on, those capacitors are not discharged fully and therefore cannot start a fresh boot.

Anything from any reputable company. EVGA and Corsair are my usual go to's when it comes to tried and true power supplies. Check out reviews and do some research on a power supply before choosing. Whether you want it modular or not is up to you and your budget, but I would definitely recommend a replacement.

i don't know where the thread is but @LukeSavenije  and others have made a PSU tierlist, you should check out

Anything i've written between the * and * is not meant to be taken seriously.

keep in mind that helping with problems is hard if you aren't specific and detailed.

i'm also not a professional, (yet) so make sure to personally verify important information as i could be wrong.
