    ok guys, i really need your help here....
    i just wrapped all the cables in my computer with electrical tape to help the airflow (floppy, IDE, and power supply wires) and now, when i press the power button, the fans and leds turn on for a second, then everything shuts off... and I have to unplug, then plug the power supply again before it will do that.. I have tried unplugging eveything except for the mobo, but it still does the same thing...

    PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!! I REALLY NEED TO GET MY PC WORKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    PLEASE!!!!!
