ive had this issue some times but never the same solution.

one fix was i disassembled the entire computer and put it toghter again and it fixed it. i still dont know what was wrong. but this is just typical :)

another time i think i used older PSU with too many HDD's (not ssd) it started to act like you descripe. i tried disassemble. didnt work. then i disabled all drives apart from the C: HDD and that fixed it.

theres so many reasons, first id disassemble your comp and put it toghter again making sure all plugs and cables are connected correctly. if it still have same issue, id disable all the devices that you dont need for the comp to start up, like CDROMS, extra HDDs and so on. if you have on-board GPU then disable your graphics card as well.

if problem STILL persist, yeah then id say PSU game over OR you need to dust it off :)

1. Make sure the last speck of dust is removed from everywhere, specially inside the PSU
2. Put a little bit of oil on the fans while you're at it, also inside the PSU
3. If it doesn't start at the first try, get a new PSU. Choose a proper brand unless you want to change again soon.

Yeah I'll try to disassemble everything, then decide what to do.

Also looking at what PSU I might get, limits are the skies as usual, lol

Seeing some industrial junk being sold for 6-8 euros is just hilarious

Actually, the tip about disassembling and reassembling is worth a try, since it might be a loose cable somewhere. Also, if you disassemble the PSU, be careful, there can be charged parts for quite some time after you have debranched it.
