Is this a cold boot issue?

[EeveeTechTips]

So I have been fixing and working on my computer upgrade for the past 3 days or so.

I have fixed most issues, but there seems to be a small problem when I boot the computer up every time.

When I power on, it will start up with fans going full power crazy on everything and stays that way for about 5 seconds and powers down and it will reboot in about 3 seconds after that.

Sometimes this only happens once and other times it happens twice before the computer starts. As far as Im aware there isnt any other problem I have encountered so far.

I have looked around the internet and some of ASUS motherboards are known to have cold-boot issues, which seems kinda weird to me. I have been using this cpu/motherboard for the past 2 years on my previous system and it has never done this before.

What would be causing this?

Any advice would be appreciate if anyone is familiar with the issue.

This used to happen on my asus z68 board.

I think i fixed it by flicking the TPU switch on the board.

Any other switches on the board?

 

If not, try resetting the CMOS battery?

yeah I tried resetting them and moving them to a different spot too. unfortunately none of the 'standard' check up stuff works. So i thought I would ask around.

This can happen if your PSU isn't powerfull enough to handle that high initial load.

May or may not be the issue here, but I thought I'll quickly mention it, since it's common and came to mind.

I tried my different power supply(both 750w gold). It did the same.
