Just replaced CPU and power supply on Gatewat GT5432. Turned it on and fans all start, but machine just beep-beep-beep-beeps. What have I done wrong?

Depends on the number of beeps and sequence. They are a code, but must be identified by the the BIOS manufacturer and version.

IWe have replaced the Acer F1 pc power supply with a new one, still no start up power. Power supply does not start, no fan spinning?

Hi,

Try using a differrent power cable, you could use the cable which goes to the monitor. If that works, then you need to just get a replacement power cable (could be US 3 PIN Spec).

If that doesn't work, then the power supply of the computer tower needs to be replaced.

Green light in rear flashing won't part up

The green light flashing is a diagnostic LED light, telling you there is a power failure.
More specifically a bad Power Supply.
Weak voltage power rail.

The Power Supply used in a Compaq Presario SR1010Z desktop computer, is a 300 Watt unit, and is an ATX form factor.

[ATX form factor for a Power Supply, denotes the size of the Power Supply case, and the shape.
It is approximately 6 inches Long, 6 inches Wide, and 3-1/2 inches Tall.
The ATX form factor for a Power Supply is used in over 90 percent of the personal computers out there, and is as readily available as the air we breathe]

Usually, HP uses one of three generic Power Supply manufacturers.
1) Bestec
2) Delta
3) HiPro

All are low quality Power Supply manufacturers.

This is HP Support, and the main menu page for the Compaq Presario SR1010Z desktop computer,

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/product?product=1146324&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&submit.y=7&submit.x=6&lang=en&cc=us

If you click on Manuals, then on Upgrading and Servicing Guide on the following page, there are instructions on how to open your computer case.

This is instructions on how to replace a Power Supply, from HP Support,

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01356113&cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&product=3548196

(It's for a Pavilion a6230n desktop computer, but after you open the computer case of your Compaq Presario SR1010Z, the instructions are the same)

What Power Supply would I recommend?
There are 100's to chose from.
This is but one example,

http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=3276575&CatId=1078

Chosen because;

1) Maximum wattage is rated at 450 Watts.

A computer ONLY uses the power it needs, and NO more.
Wouldn't matter if you had a 10,000 Watt power supply, (No such thing. An exaggeration), if your computer only needs 100 Watts, it would only use 100 Watts.
(Surfing the internet typically uses 100 watts)

2) Has all the power cables you'll need, and more. Tie up the power cables you do not need. (Use plastic ties, Not wire, or bread wrapper ties)

3) 24 Amperes (24A) on the 12 volt power rail.

4) 135mm cooling fan.
The cooling fan on the Power Supply you have now is 80mm.

A larger fan turns slower. Produces as much air as a smaller fan, (Or more), but makes less noise.
Less wear on the fan's bearings also.

5) Is an ATX form factor Power Supply.

6) It's 80 percent efficient, compared to the 60 percent efficient Power Supply you have now.
(That is, if it was working)

My gateway 310 series desktop will not power on, it was powering on and immediately powering off

sounds like your power supply. try another power strip. try plugging it into another outlet. try the monitor power cable instead of the power cable from the tower. If none of these works, and you get zero power, you need a new power supply.

The PCI serial port doesn't operate cash drawer

Check your windows firewall program. Make sure your firewall is not blocking the cash draw. Your cash draw program is like a internet connection and the firewall program would be blocking it.

Upgrading the power supply for new card evga 9800 gtx+

What kind of help do you need?

Open two screws in back of the computer case, take the side panel out, unscrew old power supply, disconnect the cables also, take the powersupply out, insert new powersupply, screw it in and connect the cables.

surely 500-800W will be enought.

Thanks and good luck.

Medion M3 Composer 5100 PC need to replace the power supply

Hello!
I presume from the very brief description? you are adept at changing the power supply and have installed it correctly? The power leads from the supply each have corresponding male/ female plugs to which only correspond the route or receiver they need to be connected too.if you are asking for a schemetic diagram for place to place positioning for your newly self installed power supply I really can not help,(without more detailed information) save to say obviuosly you are well clued in to the p.c.for repair so I presume possibly a Motherboard circuit diagram is in your possesion or maybe a sniff on the site available for your p.c.

Happy New Year!

Replacing power supply HP M8120N

Here is the link for the upgrade and service guide.

This one is just as easy as 1) removing the side panel; 2) Remove the four screws that hold the power supply into position; 3) Remove the power supply cables from the motherboard (NOTE: If the media bay reader is in the way, you remove the front bezel by pressing the release tabs on the bezel and it will swing open. Remove the one screw securing the bay in position, then slide it forward so you can reach the power cable to the motherboard.); 4) Remove the power supply cables from the hard drives, cd rom drives, and other peripherals inside the PC. 5) Remove power supply...sometimes there is a button to push and it will slide out, sometimes not. 6) Replace power supply, then reverse procedures.

Thanks and please take a moment to rate as fixya.
