Thanks, G-Man. I have been suspecting the MB for the past two days. =
Since I just transferred my entire system to a brand new case, I'm =
seriously doubting that the switch itself in two cases is the problem. =
I've also reseated the power switch several times. My board does not =
have an LED that I've seen. Today I pressed the Start button on my new =
case 20 times before it came on. As you state, once the system starts, =
there are no instabilities. I have pulled and reseated both the 4-pin =
12volt psu connector and the 24 pin connector several times. =20
You're saying that the MB is the only other suspect. Would a problem =
with the CPU alone cause any of these symptoms? =20
Since it does power on sometimes when the switch is pressed, would I =
have to perform the exercise of touching the bare MB connectors with a =
flat head screwdriver multiple times to see if it comes on each and =
every time? My power switch pins are right up against the message light =
pins.
Can this particular board issue cause any shortages to any peripherals =
connected to it? Should I tolerate my aggravation and just wait for it =
to die a final death before replacing, or can it go on like this for =
years?
