I can turn on the main power supply switch, then press the main computer switch in the front and cpu, raid chip fan and lights come on for about 1 second then go back off. Oddly enough though, I can turn the main power supply switch on and then back off, then press the main computer power switch and it does the same thing. It almost seems as though I have some compacitors charging temporarily enabling this to happen, even though I have a real problem somewhere. Also, I have an ATX motherboard, brand name Abit KT7A raid motherboard and have heard that they recalled them about a year ago because of faulty capacitors around the cpu area, though there is no visible damage that I can see. I am hoping that it is a power supply issue before I start physically taking each capacitor out of the circuit to check it. I do have alot of power outtages in this area. If anyone has had the same problem, or another suggestion, I would appreciate any input. I believe it is a power supply,CPU, or motherboard [email protected]

electricguru........ "Abit KT7A raid " Abit have discontinued this board . Did your issue start after a power outage just prior to the problem starting ......or was it happening before ?
Have you been overclocking this board ?
Have you tried a new power supply ?
Let us know,
