Windows 10: Trouble with powering up computer

There was a bit of a storm going on at the time of this post where I live, so I did a full shutdown, turned off the power strip and unplugged the strip from the wall; it calmed down, so I plugged everything back in, and expected no problems powering up (never had any except one particular moment that needed a motherboard replacement, but that was for my last computer), but the computer's power icon kept flashing amber in a steady beat, with a beep sound every 3 seconds, solved it by forcing a shutdown then pressing the button under the power supply indicator light.

looking at here and here, im at a bit of a loss, but does this mean there's a problem with the PSU unit in my computer? would like help in understanding this so I don't need to over-worry about it
