My Dell Dimension desktop 9150 was running very slow so I shut down the computer. When I pressed the power on button I notice that it was flashing. I pressed the button even holding the power button in but the machine will not come back on. I took the cover off and the MagJack (ethernet) port on the motherboard is flashing red and yellow. There is also a green light which is lit solid on the motherboard. Help !

Hi,
the constant Green, states that the motherboard is getting Power.
The red/yellow would possibly suggest, that the ethernet port has a fault or possible corruption.
Solution:- remove the Power Lead from the Computer Case.
Remove side panel. take out any ethernet-Cable from the rear.
Locate the CMOS battery, round silver Battery on The motherboard.
For 10 seconds, this should reset The bios, to it,s original Default Settings. Replace Battery, side Panel. And power Lead.
You could also try This. Boot with Hard-drive power Cable Disconnected ( this will Eliminate HD Fault ) same for CD/DVD drive et,c.
