Computer Start and Shutdown Problems

["jbk" <user=22@nabble.blu.org>]

 I have a year old MB that has recently refused to restart 
after a shutdown unless I shutoff the Power Supply for an 
hour. Then it will boot up into the OS and then after a 
short period powers off. I left this computer sit for a 
month and restarted it yesterday and it ran for a couple 
hours till I shut it down via the OS leaving the PS on. I 
came back hours later and I was note able to start it 
without shutting off the PS for a few minutes and then the 
initial symptoms I described above returned. 

It is an AMD2 Asus board. I am going to disassemble the 
board and re-install it. The case board had dimples that led 
me to believe I didn't need standoffs but I am going to 
install them now and see if it is a short issue. But, this 
computer ran fine for a year and never had a overheating 
problem. 

Any insight would be appreciated.
