All,

I just had my computer shut down on me. Upon trying to reboot it I got a loud buzz from my video card Radeon X1900XT, 2 red lights on it and my CPU fan wasn't moving at all. I tried taking off the CPU Heatsink (Big Typhoon) and re-mounting it. Disconnected all power and unplugged all motherboard power cables and reconnected it. All what happens is my system fan and CPU fan powers on for a second and then shuts off.

Any idea? Ive had my core 2 system running PERFECTLY for the past 3 weeks and now this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Don't think it's the power supply. I've got an FSP BlueStorm 500 which delievers 460 real watts. YOUR power supply delivers 480 real watts. Unless you have a lot of devices connected I doubt it would be the power supply...
