Hey all, specs are as follows:

I5 2500k

Msi Z77A-GD55

8Gb of G-Skill memory, 1600mhz

7970

OCZ ZT series 750w psu

 

Having a bit of an issue that has me stumped. My computer seems to run fine for days, weeks or even months at a time without issue (no bluescreens, perfectly stable etc) and will go to sleep and wake with no issues. The problem I'm having is that when I turn it off overnight sometimes it won't post when I try to turn it on in the morning. I can restart through windows fine or even hit the reset button however when I turn it off for any extended period of times I can't get it to boot.

When I hit the power button all the fans spin up and the power light comes on however the it won't post. If I leave it for a while or keep turning it off and on again it will post and boot like normal. I've reset the cmos and removed all overclocks/tweaks I was running which did not solve the problem. I've removed the graphics card aswell as removed and shuffled around the memory, neither of which has helped. I'm wandering if this is possibly related to the motherboard, cpu or psu as these are the only things I haven't tested. There no stability issues whatsoever once its booted and I can put it to sleep for days and it will wake up just fine, I just can't seem to turn it off.

 

Any help appreciated. Please let me know if need any more info.
