My main desktop has just died.
I am getting no response from the power button at all.
I have checked the power cable itself on a dell optiplex system i have lying around, powers that system up fine.
I have plugged a usb light/fan into the troubled desktop and the fan and light both work via USB on the Motherboard, so surely that means that the power supply is fine and the motherboard is fine too right?
Im going to try and find the power switch cables to see if there is any connectors that seem damaged or unseated.
(powerswitch cables appear fine)
Any other suggestions / help would be greatly appreciated.
Motherboard: ASRock 4CoreDual-VSTA
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo E4300 1.80GHz (i think)
PSU: Casecom Model: ATX-350W
:cry:
[edit] Also disconnected the DVD-RW drive and the SATA Harddrive and still nothing
