Cpu turns on but nothing else does.

A week or so ago our power went out when i was using my computer. My computer restarted but the monitor, mouse, and keyboard didnt turn back on. Once in a blue moon if I turn my computer on it work's but it hasnt for about 3 or 4 days now. I do have my computer plugged into a surge protector so I'm not sure what happened or what to do about it! please help!

    I forgot to add that I can turn my CPU on anytime. That part will power up but the monitor, mouse and keyboard will not.

    That is very strange. Have you tried unplugging everything, turning on the computer, letting it run about 20 minutes, pressing the power button once to shut it down, plugging everything back in, then powering on the computer?

    It's possible that it will, "unlock" the system. A CMOS reset might also be helpful.

Well, when my emachine did this, I was informed the "power toggle" was "gone" and that basically it would cost more to fix than to replace. I suggest you have this looked at as I suspect you will be given similar information.
Wish I had better news. Good Luck!

Go to Control Panel, (top right View Small Icons). Then look for Power Options. On this page, you'll have the option to leave the monitor on. You should also check "Advanced Power Options". Don't be afraid of the word, "Advanced." It only means "customizeable"

If your mouse isn't waking your monitor, try the keyboard's space bar. I found it works better than the mouse at waking a sleeping computer

Impossible to diagnose remotely. You need to try things like switching the computer off at the mains for a few minutes. If I had the computer I would try a different PSU.

No power light when on but can hear running, no screen image

First make sure the monitor is on and connected to the PC.
If the power light is not on you could have a bad power supply, it could also be that the onboard video went bad.
If your PC has four trouble lights in the back, let us know which ones are lit, this can pinpoint the problem.
The noise you hear is the drive spinning up and the CPU fan.
Good Luck.
