normally it is the power supply at fault; find a friend with a spare power supply and have them bypass yours and test to see if it the problem. Also, smell for burnt electronics - look for leaking capacitors, etc...pay a neighbor or pay best buy!
Reseat the power cord that is on the motherboard. Sometimes if you pull that cord from the motherboard (be careful there is a clip that is holding it to the board) wait about 1 minute then plug the cable back onto the motherboard your machine will possibly turn on. Also unplug your power supply cord from the computer when you do this. The other issue could be that the battery on the motherboard is dead.

My Mother has been asked to play a recently donated Technics U60 keyboard/synthesizer/organ at the nursing home my Father is in. Someone has set it to a particular programme and she cannot fathom out how to reset it, so it plays nicely, ready for Christmas and the proposed festivities. Where can I get her a manual? Is there one online that I can download and send to her? I live in New Zealand and she is in England, so I can't actually go and do anything to resolve this issue! I don't know which expert to ask, so since it is vaguely computer related, I picked you! Thanks. Liz

How do I get my Namco all-stars pac-man game to use a gamepad instead of the key board? I can't get a game pad or a joystick to work on the game I have to use the keyboard and I would like to use a game pad.

Hi. I'm using a Asus M2N-E motherboard and when I do a CMOS HDD's start to spin Fan of VGA Processor and main fan also start spinning but there is no picture on the screen and it seems the bios doesn't start up. About half a year ago I had the same problem but I couldn't solve it so I brought it to a technician but couldn't see what he did in order to be able to do it my self. I'm pretty sure there's nothing wrong nor with my VGA card nor with my Monitor since they were running just fine today. I was trying out some things and the PC freezed so I decided to shut it down and start up since I don't have a reset button but there was no response from the button and shut the power from it directly. Thought first that my CPU got fried but still restarded the CMOS and again nothing happened. After a few minutes I checked the cable connecting the button to the mother board and it was disconnected. I reconnected it and it started but it seems like I got a system boot failure and don't know how to fix it. Please do help me .
