[QUOTE="AtlBo, post: 727061, member: 32547"] Have one PC that constantly has done this for years in various. The thing that seemed to work best was (POWER OFF O/C)->Disconnect and reconnect the power connections to the motherboard. Sometimes it could take many tries here (like 2 dozen), but after removing RAM and reseating it and then cleaning the PC and generally looking after the detailing, it began to boot reliably. It took months to get it booting correctly...not that it will take you that long o/c. This PC still has a problem cutting out sometimes. Think it has something to do with core 2 quad processors. Seen alot of issues out there about this with those CPUs. If you have a separate PSU you might try that. If the PC is important enough to you, just keep trying as long as possible. This is just based on what I experienced with this... [/QUOTE]
