com has this issue of blue screen inaccessible boot device and will keep restarting on and off randomly. seems like today is the final straw when it rebooted. since then i cant even get to see bios on powering up of com or start up as it will power up for a few seconds then suddenly off then on again and repeat. im guessing this should be a PSU issue rather than of a mobo issue. i dont have a spare PSU to test with either so just looking for more inputs.

Thanks!

changed to a new PSU but the same issue still persists. com still turns on for a few seconds then power off itself and repeats restart. would this be a mobo issue? its the only thing part i can think of now.

finally managed to fix it. the issue was with the gigabyte mobo bios. there is 2 bios on the damn mobo not sure how the main bios got corrupted anyway. had to use paper clip to short the main bios chip pin so it would recover the bios from the backup bios. pfft actually wasted money on a new PSU. hopefully nothing happens anymore.
