Hi guys,

I have almost the same problem, except, my pc ain't even turning on. I have a CM 750w power supply. I have replaced all the parts except for the PSU and GPU. I don't have another PSU and GPU to test with.

3 of my led's stays on, from left, [ ][ ][x][x][x], x being the one's that are on.

What CM model PSU?

Where are you located? Maybe somebody on the forums here is local and would offer to slave in a different PSU for testing.

Heh.... just a bit more than hopping into the car to drop it off..... :)

Are there any reputable shops around? My first guess would still be PSU, but that's hard to test without another one to slave in.

Do you have a lot of extra gear running off of the PSU? If so, you can try unplugging everything but the absolute necessities which would point you to PSU if it works.
