    I left my computer on, then came home to find it off. I tried turning it on and it wouldn't for the longest. After several attempts i would get power for a few seconds, then it would power back down. I eventually got it to turn on. This is the second time i've been through this process. I have a lan party motherboard (dont know specifics) I do notice that there are 4 red led lights that turn on while im trying to turn the pc on. I have it running as of now, and the red led lights are off. Im not sure what my problem, or what possible solutions may be..

    DFI boards are very sensitive to the 5V rail strength on a PSU. You should try a more powerful PSU as a test (make sure the 5V rail maximum amps is higher).
