Computer shuts off

[Billybob51106]

This has got me stumped. If the computer is off for a while I can turn it on, get into windows fo 30 seconds then it shuts down. If I go to the BIOS the CPU temp is at 114F or so, chasis temp says 90F.

I got a fan in front, 120 in the back blowin air. What has me stumped is this sounds like such a standard heat issue but nothing is getting to warm.

Do you have a fan on your CPU? Is it running?

Yes all fans are going. This one is a stumper for me, I fix computers all day long. I was thinking PSU was getting to hot but it is lightly warm to the touch.

This is the case btw, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811129148

How old is this machine? I had a Dell here at work like that - fans all running, nothing hot to the touch. Turned out it was bad caps on the board. Any of them bulging or corroding?

Looks to be the PSU, turned a fan on high and kept it down right cold and she worked great. Let her heat up and she took a crap. the PSU is one of the "smart" ones that the fan turns on as needed. Well she didn't turn on. I have been hearing and now seeing antec are just get cheaper.
