Posted July 22, 2014 so i have noticed that recently (3/5 times) when i press the power button on my PC everything goes as it should for a second or two, everything lights up fans are on etc..., but after those few seconds, the PC powers down for about 3 seconds, and it just turns back on. i dont see any problem in the computer otherwise, im just confused to why this is happening. Does anyone know what this is or how to fix it?

Posted July 22, 2014 Have you changed anything or OC'ed anything recently, you could try a CMOS reset and see if the problem continues.

Uses? Currency? Location? Operating System? Peripherals? Monitor? Use PCPartPicker wherever possible. Quote whom you're replying to, and set option to follow your topics.
