Well my cpu powered down and will not power back up. When you hit the power button it powers up for 2-3 seconds and turns back off. I recently upgraded the power supply and graphics card. Since the recent updates were what first came to mind I reinstalled the old power supply and nothing has changed. Any help would be much apreciated.

Thanks~!

Did you try removing the new graphics card?

Also, reseat the processor's heatsink. I have seen that be the culprit.

Ill do the graphics card now. How do you reset the heatsink? Is that the one on the motherboard with the fan over top of it? Thanks for replying.
