Yea,

Maybe someone out there has had this same problem. For the past two days, I have come home to find my "always on" PC turned off, and when I push the PWR switch on the case, nothing happens. I then proceed to check all of the connections, and I find that everything is connected as it should be. Then I unplug the case from the wall, and plug it back in, only to find that the PC will still not turn on. After I have tried all of these things, I unplug the PS connector from the MOBO and then reconnect it. Once the connector is reconnected, and I push the PWR switch on the case, away we go! It runs just fine after this, with seemingly no difficulities. What is the deal here?

Some possibly useful specs:

Gigabyte ATX MOBO
K6-2 @ 550MHz, not overclocked

This machine was constructed from new parts back in July, and, up until the past few days, has not given me any trouble at all. Any help that you have would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
