I have a problem with my daughters eMachines 2862 Desktop. Nothing happens when you press the power button on the front. The machine was working fine and then the next time she came to switch it on nothing happened, no fans no power light. I have installed a new replacement power supply, because I read that the eMachines P.S were prone to failure but it is still the same. There is a tiny green led that lights up on the motherboard when I plug the power cord in but thats it.
Can anyone help.
Thanks

Check all the leads to the hard drive and check that the fan starts spinning when you switch it on if it dont start then the problem is the switch these do often go and can be easily replaced and they are not expensive i had the same problem and found that it was just the switch hope this solves your problem for you you can bypass the swith so that the computer comes on when you turn the plug on but when you shut down the computer this shuts everything down but the switches are cheap enough to buy if you have changed the power pack then the only thing it can be is switch .................................

I clicked the "Accept" button by mistake on the first solution
I have tried all the connectors and cables to no avail and shorted the ower switch without success. I still have no fans or anything except the little green led on the motherboard.
