Post subject:  Power issue?

Had a couple of issues starting my PC today. Powered on briefly, fans started spinning, then it turned off. It did it again. On the third time it asked me if I wanted to do a Windows Startup Recovery, which I accepted, and it restarted again. Then I just told it to start Windows normally and it booted fine and hey, here I am!

I was wondering what you guys think this might be? PSU on the way out? If I posted a screenshot showing the voltages, would you be able to tell me if they seem 'normal' ?

I could do with a new PSU but ideally not until next year.

Hmm, that could be a number of things, but PSU is a good place to start. Post the voltages.

I sorted the problem... it was faulty RAM ;)

Removed the modules and the system works fine again. I'm sending them back for RMA.

Ask him how he feels about the eight gigs. Or her of course.
