I have a weird issue lately, older system (2500 Barton, ASUS mobo). When it has been off for the night, and I turn it on the next day, it spins up for about 3-5 seconds and turns back off.

There is no initial boot beep or any other problem indicated... and it will keep doing it on subsequent attempts to turn it on. To fix it, I shut off the main switch on the power supply for 5 seconds, turn it back on, and everything fires up normally.

Any ideas what may be causing this issue? Thanks :)
 
I've got an idea: The power supply is dying. What are you system specs? As most detail as possible plz, especially psu brand/model. It sounds like a power related problem, though it could be other things (mobo or a short).
