Hey all,
So I have an older rig:
Gigabyte P35-DS3R
2.4 Intel Dual Core
4GB Ram
Corsair 450 PSU
And over the past year I've had an issue where when I first power on, the drives and fans spin up and it sounds like its on but my display is all black, no posting. Then I hold the power button to shut down and boot up again and it will work fine after that. This same thing has been happening more and more frequently over the past year or more and now it seems like it's every time I power it on it happens. Based on this info does anyone know what could be causing it or how to determine the cause? I'm guessing it could be either PSU or Mobo related but I don't have any spares to swap out to test with.
Thanks!
