No power response, cable and outlet are good

There is no response when i press the power button. It's a good outlet and we've tried another power cable. I guess it just needs a new power supply, but if that's the case, I do not know what criteria to base that purchase on. Any groundbreaking insight?

Hi there,
have you seen or heard the fan moving,if that so it may be power supply,unsle you have a tester
to measure the output supply from power supply. try to open the cover of your cpu on side corner there are two lock in bolt,loosening this and slide pull backward to open,on figure as sample the location of quick lock bolt.no power response, cable and outlet are good - be45915.gif
then inside your cpu,you can see power supply
there is a specification tabulated on side of pwer supply.on figures you can see.on the arrow pointing power supplyno power response, cable and outlet are good - 495dadf.jpg="/uploads/images/495dadf.jpg" alt="495dadf.jpg" class="h_mi" /> on your cpu you can read the specification
of your power supply take note on this.when you buy new power supply just let them know,mostly
the capacity they will ask you e.g. 450 watts.have a nice day,don't forget to rate me.

ps
removing power on figure you can see cable from power supply going to mother board disconnect them from terminals such as hardisk,cd room.floopy,motherboard,and the sccrew on the backside of cpu.

Acer Aspire 5536 only gives black screen when i connect power supply

  • Nothing is more annoying than a monitor that refuses to turn on. Make sure your Acer monitor is plugged in to a functioning outlet. If it's plugged into a power strip, try replacing it with a new one or moving the plug to a different outlet. Ensure that both ends of the power cable are plugged in firmly and securely, and that the connection to the monitor is not loose.
Cable Issues
  • Your Acer LCD monitor will usually accept DVI and VGA inputs. If you have an older computer, a VGA cable should work fine. If it doesn't have a VGA port, you'll need to obtain an inexpensive DVI to VGA adapter at your local computer store. A DVI cable, however, is compatible with most modern computers and offers superior picture quality over VGA. Make sure you're using the cable that's compatible with your system, and that you have the proper conversion adapter, if necessary.

You've confirmed the cable is good? Have you confirmed the monitor is good? Try the monitor on another computer and if it fails, more the likely the monitor is bad. If you press the power button on the monitor and there is no power light coming on, the monitor is bad. You said you got it to repair, well, I'm thinking it's not fixed.

Locks frequently and restarts sometimes all by itself. Parts of the screen regularly skews in triangular shapes.

  • Verify that the power outlet you're using is good and your power cable is firmly connected to the wall outlet-if using a surge protector, be sure that it's firmly plugged into the wall outlet. Also, try temporarily plugging directly into the wall outlet to eliminate any issue with the surge protector; plug a different electronic device into the same wall socket to make sure the socket works, and also try the iMac's power cable in a different wall outlet.
  • Make sure the computer's power cable is firmly connected to the computer.
  • If any external devices are connected to your iMac, disconnect them and try to turn the computer on again. If the iMac will power up when those devices are removed, but not when they are connected, contact the manufacturer of those devices for assistance.
  • Try resetting the iMac's SMC
  • Remove and reinstall the SO-DIMM memory modules, located in the bottom of the computer.
  • Resetting the SMC for Mac Pro, Intel-based iMac, Intel-based Mac mini, or Intel-based Xserve

    1. Shut down the computer.
    2. Unplug the computer's power cord.
    3. Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
    4. Release the power button.
    5. Attach the computers power cable.
    6. Press the power button to turn on the computer.

Scan not functioning. Provides NO ERRORS.

Unplug the power cable from the All-In-One when there is still power in the unit.
Also unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
Leave the cable unplugged for atleast 1Min time.
And connect the cable directly to wall outlet with out any surg protector (if you have a different outlet try with that)
Then before connecting the cable to the All-In-One press and hold the # and no 9 button do not release the buttons untill it comes up with a mesage as reset (or if the screen goes blank then release the keys and turn the power on)
Then press the setup/menu button and then press the right arrow key till you see print reports> the press Ok and scroll to print test page and check if it is functioning properly.
Then try a color or Black copy and check.

Good Luck
