The problem I am having with my pc is this. I switch on said pc and it goes through the entire start and boots up. Then usually when I press to start a game it switches off and won't come back on there is no life at all. I thought it was blowing a fuse so I changed the fuse and it fired up. So after that when it did it again I went to the fuse and it worked. But after running out of 5amp fuses I ran some 5 amp fuse wire I had across the gap till I could get to the shop the next morning. So when it went again on start up the next morning I opened up the plug and the fuse wire is fine. This has led me to discover that when it goes I just unplug it and plug it backin and it fires up. The only thing I have changed recently is I put and extra HDD in it so obviously I have tried taking the power lead away from the new hdd and finally now have disconected the ide cable from it too. This problem only occurs on start up and usually only once then it starts ok but it does it every time I start it up (initially) without fail.
