I had a similar problem recently, it was the cmos battery, i took it out for about 15 minutes, then put it back in and everything worked. You could also try and make sure the power and reset switches aren't lose. I'd recommend doing the latter first.

Okay basically when i turn on the machine is starts up for like 2 seconds then it shuts down. After that it starts up again and the cycle repeats (even after i have changed PSU)
