Computer Crashes after a few seconds

Expand Post »

Hello,
I am having an odd problem. Everytime I turn on my computer it turns itself off only after a few seconds. There are no beeps or any messages on the monitor. I can't figure out what the problem is. I have a new motherboard that I installed after the problem started because I thought my old one was the problem. That didn't work. I am buying a new power supply because that seems to be the only logical reason for the outage. Does anyone know what the problem could be?

I have a P4 3.0 Ghz running on a Asus P4P800S-X motherboard.
GeForce FX5500 graphics card
