Right so got up this morning and went to turn on my computer and nothing, no responce, no lights on the gfx card or the mobo to indicate any power. But the PSU had it's red light on to indicate it was getting power.

So i unplugged the power for a minute connected it back up and mobo and gfx got lights on them, powered it on and 10 seconds later it went dead again.

Is this a issue with the PSU or mobo? I have a PSU in another computer but it would need to be taken apart to get it out and it doesn't have any sata connections, not sure if it would be worth my time connecting it up if i can't use it.

Something similar happened to me recently, replaced the PSU and it's grand now.

Check how many times the light flashes on the front of the PC then google it with the make and model and that might help you figure out what's wrong with it.
