I’ve passed it over to my local pc store and asked them to troubleshoot the hardware. I’m pretty sure that it is the psu as it was replaced half a year ago for doing more or less the same thing. Maybe something is breaking my psu

I am sure that some information and reasoning will emerge at some point, after they’ve looked through his phone, computer, home and talked to people who knew him.

Ok thanks. The PSU is the newest part in this PC. Was replaced half a year ago for doing the exact same thing. Sounds like there may be something breaking the PSU somehow

So… it won’t even boot at all now. Only rotates the fans a few times and shuts down. Could it be a powerfully issue

Ah… i saw your message before you deleted it. It sounds like a good tip. Will try and see if all drives are listed in the bios

Yeah that might be it!

That said, im not making it that far any more. When booting up, the fans start rotating for a few seconds and then it shuts down. Then it will try again and just keep repeating the process of only rotating the fans again and again

I’ll try to see if i can boot off an USB. Any good links that explain what fsck is and how it works?
