Hi guys, i have made a couple of posts about this matter and its still not getting resolved :/

i bought and made my computer last december, and recently it has all gone wrong !

when i was moving my desktop from my fathers house and i got it to my mums the computer wouldnt turn on, so i assumed it was the psu. it wouldnt turn my computer on, but it would turn a lower power computer on. so i sent it into the computer company i bought it off (eclipse computers) and they said it was working perfectly. so i got this further checked by a computer shop and he said it was the psu that is causing my problems so he gave me a new psu and it worked fine.

Got the computer home and the computer would turn on but after a couple of presses on the on/off button. I then shut down the computer and then about an hour later i come back to my computer and it would turn on. but the screen, mouse and keyboard would flciker, then about 3 minutes later it would turn off by its self. it keeps doing this.

i took ram out and optical drives and had the basics in but still no joy

so i sent my motherboard back to my local computer shop and he tested it with the bleep bios test thing and said yep, its deffinatley your motherboard. so i sent my motherboard back to eclipse computers in confidence it was broke, but they rang yesterday and said its working perfectly :/

what the hell is up with my computer !
 
Sounds like those people are trying to screw you over. Repair guy said it is definitely, but they say no?

See if you can borrow a mobo from the repair shop. Better yet, take your computer THERE and see if you can slap in a new one and see if it fixes your issue. PSU could have killed the mobo when it went.
 
well he said it probably is the mobo because he did the bios bleep test. could it maybee be my cpu ?

im so gutted
 
It could be a bunch of things. If he said it is probably the mobo, I would go and ask him if he'd let you try swapping a cheap mobo, right there, to see if it resolves the issue. heck, if you can, test all the parts until you find out what is wrong.
