My computer recently started having a problem with booting up. When I press the power button, it starts up. It would seem all the fans are turning, but after 2-4 seconds my computer turns off. Then it starts up on its own again and stops after 2-4 seconds. It will continue this way till I kill the power to the computer. To add to the weirdness, sometimes it works just fine. it will do the start and stop then suddenly work as normal.

I've removed both of my ram chips, one at a time, to see if they were causing the problem but nothing changes when i take one out.

Could anyone suggest some things i could try to troubleshoot the problem?
 
Get ahold of an extra PSU, albeit a friend's PSU or just a spare, and run it using that, see if that helps.

I ran an Allied PSU, that would do stupid stuff like that.
