Update.

Ok had no problems over the past few days but went to turn my pc on today and nothing, not even a flicker of power. I took this opportunity to try the papaer clip thing you suggested, but nothing, no flickers either.

I then took my pc out and laid it on its side to see if i could see any problems, i tried powering up whilst it was horizontal and it worked fine. got it back in and no problems.

Now i know this looks like the motherboard is shorting somewhere but i can assure you i was so careful when putting the motherboard in the case. The only place it was touching the case were on the screw supports used to screw it into place, and i made sure there are rubber washers on before i screwed it into place.

this is really confusing me now, any ideas?
