ok so heres my problem. ive had my computre for just over 2 years now. never had a problem with it til recently. when i turn the computer on it starts up, all the fans and everything kick on, but after 5 seconds the computer just powers down, waits a second and then tries to restart itself. ive narrowed the problem down to when i unplug the 8pin 12v cord from the mother board the computer stays running but when i plug it back in it gives me this problem. any suggestions...

Jump to PostIt does. You need to have a close inspection of the capacitors on your motherboard to see if any have domed up and/or leaked. If you find any, they need to be replaced.
