hey guys,
I've had this issue for about amonth now and its starting to get annoying. Basically ever since I installed 7 on a new hdd, when I turn on the pc the fans spin, you can see the disk drives flashing etc... but it doesn't post, monitor shows no signal. If I then press restart it boots up fine, no problems. The same thing happens from s3 standby as well, if I resume the monitor shows no signal until I press restart which then bringsup the windows dekstop. I doubt the issue is 7 because that wouldn't stop it from posting. Only thing I can think is that the new hdd is causing it but I know the hdd works fine because I pulled it from another pc. Any ideas?
<< Btw my pc spec is in my system

. I have checked and the power and reset buttons are on the correct headers. I tried a little light overclocking as suggested above but the pc got as far as the windows loading screen, then the monitor lost the signal. I tried numerous times with ridiculously high voltages for such a small overclock on the cpu (safe voltages though) and still only gets as far as the boot screen. The fact the monitor loses signal and the keyboard doesn't respond leads me to believe the pc has effectively shutdown even though the fans and weridly the cd drives are still spinning. I'm now thinking as suggested it is a psu issue. Anyone have any ideas how I could test/confirm this? Really starting to
me off now.
