Hello, I have recently had a problem with my pc turing off in the middle of a game (Guild Wars), and then, it won't turn on 4 times out of 5. I understand that a bad power supply may be the problem, but I just bought a new one a month ago. I have 4 case fans in my PC, 2 in the front, 1 in the side, and 1 in the back. Any help would be appreciated, thanks

Well, I have unplugged and replugged the power supply, if that is what you mean. The PC started again yesterday and was fine for several hours. Then it went out again and hasn't started since. Plz help.

Even a new power supply can be bad. :tazz:

Sounds like a power supply issue to me too.
