Hi there,

Lately, I've been experiencing some weird power problem. The problem : When I boot my computer in the morning, the power goes on, the fans are spining, the little green led comes on, I hear the beep but no picture on the screen. The computer is frozen. I have to push the power button for 5-6 seconds to shut it down. And when I power it up again, it's good for the day! Every morning...

On one computer (PIII-550, BE6-II board), I changed the power supply and it resolved the problem (from a 250W to 300W). On the other one, nothing changed (Athlon 700, FIC SD11 board). I flashed the BIOS, changed the PSU. No results.

Any ideas??

Thanks a lot in advance for any suggestion from you, wise people!
