Question about the flashing green light on hp pc

desktop small form factor, SFF, (not silly fat frog)
no statement as to where lamp is, I'll guess, FRONT.
just the light bothers you, only..?
why not RTM read the manual to learn what it means.?
so where is said LED lamp, ? front of case on the SSF case?
HP calls it, and searches only work with this.
HP Compaq 8000 Elite Small Form Factor PC./
im reading your manual now for you at HP.com
my guess is lamp 5, (pwr) is not green now but is red
green means power ok, red means, not ok.,
page 2:
if flashing , the flashes are codes, what is your flash code if flashing
if not this LED then say which one?
green on 5 means ok. power ok, no errors. red bad.

And? do you have a question? Do you have a problem? If so, what is it?

Power getting to the computer/Power Supply?
Yeah.

Power Supply good? -> NO

A) IF ALL of the LED lights were on at once, they would use less than 1 Watt of power.

B) EACH fan uses 2 to 3 Watts of power.

C) A typical Processor can use from 51 to 125 Watts of power.
Just depends on what Processor it is.

HP Pavilion a810n Desktop PC?
Uses an AMD Athlon 64 3300+ processor,
(Operates Up To a frequency rate of 2.4GHz)

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&docname=c00280647

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_amd_athlon_64_microprocessors#.22Newcastle.22_.28CG.2C_130_nm.29

Can use up to 89 Watts of power.

Your Power Supply doesn't even have enough power to spin fans, much less start the Processor.

Want to test the Power Supply? Have a multimeter?
No? Have a power supply you can borrow for a test unit?
KNOWN to be good, and Compatible?

The green LED light at the back of the Power Supply, is now a diagnostic LED light.

Tells you the Power Supply is bad.

Scroll down. Click on the + sign to the left of the blue -
Power supply light is on or flashes

(When the PC worked the green light stayed on constantly. You are correct)

Now,...
1) Is the computer dirty inside? Need to know how to properly clean it?
2) Would you like to know the easy test, to see if the problem may be a $5 ATX power on switch, or the Power Supply?

3) I also suggest you remove all ram memory modules, ('Stick'), and clean their gold plated contact pins, with an eraser.
There is a proper procedure for this.

The flashing Orange light means the charge is flashing.
The flashing Green light means the focus and exposure are not correct.

Have you recently replaced the batteries? Or are you using rechargeable batteries? Lack of enough "Juice" could allow for the flash to not charge up (Orange) therefore not allowing the camera to get the correct exposure (Green). I would try new fresh batteries or a new battery pack. If that doesn't fix the issue it must be a bad circuitry in the body that is shorting not letting the flash charge.

try scaning from computer. i mean dont press the scan button -on printer but rather use some application on your pc to start the scan. you could test with office document imaging software.

it is normal that the green light flashes when u have the internet connected......modem to pc

Check your BIOS battery make sure it is working correctly and that it is not out. You can use a battery tester to see.

if your network cable is plugged in it will flash green .....if it won't turn on pull the plug and wait 10 seconds or more then plug in again and see if it will start .....are the fans running and no signal to monitor?

count the times the green led flashes? and how it flashes that´s an error code for your problem. it can be the motherboard or power.
