Breadboarded pc turns on when I connect the power pins but if I turn it off and try again it won't come on for the next 12 hours or something. I'm so confused anyone got any idea what it could be

Breadboarded PC? WTF? Pictures? Specs?

You are so very concise and clear with the issue here. We should have had an answer 30 minutes ago!

 

Seriously though, we need your system specs at the very least to help more, and what does breadboard mean?

So the issue, is if you boot up your computer and shut it down, once you "turn on" your pc again it doesn't for ~12 hours?

Don't think so I've tried two of them and in other PCs work fine

Well, that's weird, can you take a picture of your pc?

Are you SURE you are shorting the correct two pins? It almost sounds like you are shorting power and maybe one of the reset pins? or something bad like that. I don't know why it would take 12 hours to reset itself that in and of itself is strange but I have seen the "it turns on for a second then off" when the power and reset are shorted together.
