Cant switch on pc but power light is on? - Computers & Internet

    Suggestion is to first bypass the Power On switch. This way if the PSU (Power Supply Unit) comes on you know it was a bad Power On switch. If the PSU doesn't come on you know it's a bad power supply. Should the power supply come on, and the computer does not, it's time to check the power supply. If you wish to know how to bypass the Power On switch, and also how to test the power supply, just state so in a Comment. (Believe it's to the upper right of your page)

CSH-800 8-Port Ethernet Switch Problem When i switch the power on, only the POWER LED light up and nothing is happened, computers cant detect it

Switches arnt not detectable by the computer, a switch allows you to link multiple pcs togethers that sit on the same domain/workgroup , and also network subnet, the other lights will come one when you connect a RJ45 cable between the unit and a PC to show a port is in use.

Normal shut down on pc, now it will not power up.

if you can figure out what pins your power switch is plugged into you can try and bypass the switch as for the power supply itself i know theres a way to trick it and boot just the power supply but i cant remember what pins on the plug it is try and google the power plug layout it should tell you what pins to connect to boot it

Twinhead Efio 121i dead

It is problem with your laptop's SMPS ie. Switched Mode Power Supply.

Due to which your laptop can't get regulated power supply neither from Power Cord nor from Battery.

Yes, your LED will show charging but its useless because your laptop's Mother Board Chip is not getting power.

So please ask some hardware engineer to replace it.

Rate this solution if it was helpful to you.

Need help

the pin arrangement is 4 pins and pins.
From left top row (4 pins) first 2 are power led, next 2 are power switch, next 1 is empty
from left bottom row ( 5 pins ) first 2 are hdd, next 2 are reset, next 1 is empty.
The connectors for the power led and the hdd produce a light, if they don't produce a light, power off your pc and switch the cables round the other way and power on again.

EMachines not powering up

You may have updated windows to a point that this old machine cant handle the revamp. Kick back to an older ops system, although that poses security risks. Your motherboard may also have given up. Best advice - upgrade, and retire this machine to the recycle bin.
