    Unhappy Assistance Needed

    Hey Guys
    Anyone have a 700 plus PSU sitting around I can borrow for a little while.
    I have a Thermaltake 750w Toughpower (cable management) that is freaking out on me.
    System was running fine then when it was turned off it wouldn't start.
    Did the normal testing and no go, disconnected all cables from PSU as well as main power to mobo and noticed a flicker of light from mobo. Let sit for awhile reconnected and all worked. Died again not long after (only dies once turned off), this time completely removed PSU and reconnected and working. Reseated psu and all cables and ran fine. Played Medal of Honour for a few hours then switched off. Went to turn on this morning and same again no power.
    I am guessing it is PSU (should still be in 5yr warranty). Any one have any ideas or can help with PSU please let me know

    Worst case, buy one now, and sell the new warranty replacement when it arrives.

    They say if you play a Microsoft CD backwards, you hear satanic messages. Thats nothing, cause if you play it forwards, it installs Windows
