Angry Big post issue

So my sig rig has been stable at 3.2ghz 534fsb @ 1.36v for a while.

I had a issue trying Mass Effect were it froze and I had to hard reset, well after that my raid corrupted so I had to rebuild it and install my os again. Anyways since then when I restart my computer the light comes on then suddenly shuts off and will keep doing this until I physically shut off my psu (flip power switch).

I was thinking my bios is gettinh corrupted due to the fact when my computer failed to boot in the past it would go yo my second bios.

I have checked my wiring and it all looks good. Also I added a wireless pci adapter but the problem happened before I installed it. I thought maybe the psu? I only have a 550w enermax which isnt strong enough for my system.

ANY insight would be greatly appreciated.

Sounds kind of like a bad PSU. Enermax had some shady build quality. Maybe test with another PSU?

What I mean by I only have a 550w Enermax is that is all I have as a spare. My main rig (sig rig) has a Silverstone 750w single 60a rail, which should be more then enough for my system.
