The system shutting down now fairly frequently, and had to reset CMOS. Eventually got it to boot into bios.
V12 rails shows up to 18V, then comes down gradually, and after about a min it drops to 12.7V. I can boot into windows then, but it does not last long before shutting down.
Is it likely to be the PSU or the MP (both i think are showing their age).
Just checked a couple of molex's with a VM and voltage is 12.13 consistent, but on bios fluctuating at over 15v. I'm starting to think its the MB.
Any comments welcome.
MB is ASUS P8Z68-V LX, and psu is antec truepower 650w.
