I couldn't find anything in the forums that had this - apologies if I missed it. When I try to boot my machine, it often will begin to powerup and then die - the power just turns off- before even entering in to the memory test. This can happen several times before it "catches" and then it would continue to a normal startup.
I've recently added a Ti4200, upgraded sound card and a second-hand SCSI card and LVD drive to an older 200W Dell system. I didn't think any of this would tax the PSU but could be wrong. This did not happen before I added the extra hardware in to the machine.
Once the machine is running, I have no problems and haven't seen any random reboots.
