Hey guys.. my mum had a Mini for a while and it started turning off but leaving it for an hour or so it would turn back on again and work fine for a week or so

Now it turns on, chimes and turns off again! Do you think it could be the PSU? :confused: I don't have any spares to try it and can't seem to get a hold of one :(
 
I could be a heat problem, an intermittent fan. I don't know where you'd get a spare power supply. Try taking it into an Apple store and let them troubleshoot it for free.
 
Sounds like a logic board issue to me. Might be RAM as well, but I doubt it is power related.
