Dell 9020 Mini Tower in the workshop usually won't turn on. No response from power button. If pressed a few times the power LED flashes 2-1 (apparently main board failure). But with persistence, sometimes I can get it started and it boots fine! No particular technique it just sometimes boots after pressing the power button a few times.
Once running I can run tests, e.g. built-in Dell diagnostics and stress-testing utilities, without any crashes or errors. Restart seems to boot OK but usually not after shutdown.
Any ideas?
The customer thought it was the PSU, and I suppose he might be right but I don't have a compatible one to test with. I might order one to try I suppose.
