You don't hear any different bios beep codes prior to the failure? Can you loan a spare power supply from someone for a couple of days? I had a similar frustrating intermittent failure on new gear late last year that took some time to pin down. Appeared on the surface to possibly be power supply. Disconnecting any non-necessary hardware (DVD drive, second hard drive, sound card etc) seemed to resolve it - a few times. Next, swapping out the PSU got it booting OK - but only a few more times. At some point in the middle of this I intermittently got different beep codes from the motherboard indicating motherboard failure - fortunately it was only 7 months old so still under warranty. Good luck! Roger James Pluck wrote:

Are you able to check the voltages at the PSU?
I don't have a meter of any kind to check with.
