Does the PC start up ? Does it post or load windows ? I cant remember, I have had a shitty week. Anyways try this..

unhook everything ie: hardrive.. optical drive.. take all the RAM out except 1 stick.. unhook all fans minus the cpu fan !!

If you have onboard video on your motherboard then take out your video card also. If not leave the video card in.

Your computer needs the power supply hooked up to the motherboard and 1 stick of RAM in and cpu &fan hooked up thats it. It should post or attempt to boot.

With all that done, that leaves the problem to only your power supply and or motherboard. Try swapping out to the other RAM stick. Again only have one stick in the motherboard.

Also: try taking the motherboard battery out for 5 minutes and then putting it back in. Push in on your bios chip too. should be a small black little square says bios on it. Just push in on it do NOT remove it. I am betting on your power supply is toast. Thats a easy fix if so. let me know what happens GL !

ok i had the same problem with my computer a couple months ago. The power supply shitted out on me, so I went to frys and got a new one and plugged it all back in and it worked just fine after that. I had a 300 watt power supply got a 350 for like 35-40 dollars and plugged it in and it started to work again.

**SmurfSniper** · 09-18-2009

just got a tester and tested to make sure it was the power supply and the tester lights up for a second and then dies so yea definately the power supply. should be back by next weekend.... Hopefully O_o

once again
I wanna thank everyone for helping out with this. pen your awsome for finding the right power supply CHEAP.... even though you wear crocs! lol
