Hi chaps - I decided to boot up my spare PC this morning, but all the fans spin for about a second then shut down - then again after a pause, then again for slightly longer - then it shuts down
I suspect it's the motherboard as it had been misbehaving for a while, but I don't have any good way of testing.
It's a really old i7-860 on a P7P55M mobo, so even the PSU is not quite interchangeable with my regular PC
I don't particularly want to shell out extra cash on testing - but even disconnecting practically everything doesn't get it to boot - so I suspect it's either the ancient Mobo or the quite recent PSU (which was only replaced last year)
What would be the best way to test off the top of your collective heads?
