The CPU fan is spinning, the case fans turns and stops...try by itself then fails...I'm try to remove the rest of the case fans (4) and see if this is a power supply issue. Then try resetting the RAMs...not sure where else to check.

Thanks for your help

Shame...I'll have to find a similar or better PSU at a good price then.
Thanks

I guess it's time anyway for this PSU

This is a Core 2 era computer, so I'd imagine the CMOS battery is gone at this point. It means your memory configurations and such are susceptible to corruption.
I would simply try fitting a new battery and shorting the 'reset' pins to make sure the motherboard has a chance to reconfigure itself.

Reporting back.
The changing of battery worked.
Thanks a lot
