The past few days I've been been having an issue, sometimes after putting the computer to sleep or turning it off it will not turn on when I hit the power button. Previously I turned my power strip off and then back on and this remedied the issue temporarily, the computer would start after doing this.
Last night though I arrived home and the computer would not start at all. I tried cycling the power, I've opened the case and checked all the power connections, etc. The motherboard is lit up like its receiving power though.
Note, the computer had zero issues maintaining a powered on state, it would only have issues trying to boot up.
Where should I start looking for the fix? I don't have a spare PSU to test it but I assume that's the most likely candidate. Any chance it could be the watch battery on the mobo? Something else entirely?
Thanks in advance for any ideas!
