When I originally built this PC, it had an issue with randomly restarting. I proceeded to try a bunch of things and ended up unplugging everything except the power switch and the cards I have in it. Everything worked until now, when I decided to move it from one apartment to another. Below is a list of what I've tried. I still think it's shorting out but I am not sure what is causing it. I'm trying to avoid removing the mother board or re-seating the processor without trying everything else. It does not get to the BIOS / POST.
- Tested power supply using paper clip, worked fine.
- Removed all plugged in components from the back panel except power
- Ensured my stand offs are tightened, I have 2 in plug the main one sitting through the middle of the mother board. I've read the screws being over sized could cause this but the ones I have in aren't excessive (They're not tiny, I'd consider them pretty normal). Has anyone experienced this?
- Removing the power switch after turning it on.
Ideas?
