Hello

When I turn on my computer for the first time of the day the computer starts up however the monitor, keyboard andmouse do not turn on. Im left with a black screen while the computer is starting up. When I restart the computer the monitor, mouse and keyboard load up but I am in BIOS. I quit BIOS and everything is fine. When I turn off the computer and turn it back on later in the day it runs perfectly.

This computer is not even 1year old.
Is the motherboard failing? (Asus P4Pe) or is it the PSU?

I Hope you can help me.

Thankyou

Yes, the battery is known to cause alot of problems, and it is the first step in troubleshooting. The battery should not be failing this early, but that doesn't mean it wont. Same with any component you buy. If it is a year, I say take it to where to bought it for a warrenty checkup.
