PC turns off when I bump into it

I have a PC that turns off whenever I bump into it, even if it is the lightest bump. It will only turn on again when I unplug and plug in the power cable. Could it be a faulty power cable or power supply? Any help is appreciated.

it's just a loose connection.

reseat all cables (unplug and plug in again), and make sure they click.

if you have a modular PSU, make sure it's secure on both ends.

Thank you, I'll just redo the connections then.
