HP PAVILION 760n

GREEN LED LIT ON P4B266-LA (Danube) SYSTEM BOARD AND ON HP MINI-ATX POWER SUPPLY. SYSTEM POWERS UP BUT NO HARD DRIVE SPIN UNLESS 80 PIN EIDE CABLE IS DISCONNECTED FROM P4B266-LA (Danube) SYSTEM BOARD. NO VIDEO POST NO VIDEO ERROR WITH TNT2-M64 32MB SDR AGP VIDEO CARD IN OR OUT OF SYSTEM. NO VIDEO FLASH ON MONITOR AND NO SIGNAL GROUND REPORTED TO MONITOR (MONITOR LED STAYS YELLOW). WHAT DO YOU THINK IS WRONG? POWER SUPPLY OR ASUS MAMA BOARD?

  • THEJOATMON Jan 17, 2008

    As a PC tech with nearly 25 years experience, I have already tried all of these recommendations. All I wanted to know was if the ASUS System Board would beep if there's no AGP video in place or if a more familiar technician thought the prob was with the ASUS motherboard or the proprietary HP ATX mini-power supply......

Tell me if there is something i need to know like: what were the things that you've doing with your computer before the problem happened?? are there any recent hardware/software changes?? tell also your OS- is it XP or Vista...
1

first, let's try to check if the problem is with the monitor or not,okey? try unplugging the monitor blue connector at the back of the tower.and make sure that your monitor is turned-on.If you can see a colored bars displayed.you monitor is okey.if not, try a known good monitor...if it woks the problem is with the old monitor.(resolved)

2 (if not)
Now, complelely turn off your computer and try reseating all the cables, and your hardware components such as memory,video card,IDE cable and so on. but before doing so, unplug the power cable and then push the power button to drain the power.after reseating everything, plug back the power cable and turn on computer.try listening to the tower,tell me if you can hear some beeps also.

if no video issue is still there, try putting a known good video card if you have any.if a known good video card works then the problem is with the old one..

if the problem is still there after everything that you've done try calling the manufacturer. this is lead to a motherboard problem but try to call them first.

The green light on the back is flashing, but when I push the power button nothing happens, any ideas what it could be?

The Green LED light flashing indicates a bad Power Supply. Weak voltage power rail.

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/product?product=404643&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&submit.y=7&submit.x=7&lang=en&cc=us

Troubleshooting Power Supply Issues HP Pavilion A520n,

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=bph06788&tmp_task=solveCategory&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&site=null&lang=en&key=null&product=404643#N207

Click on > Power Supply light is on or flashes

"If the LED is still flashing (it should not flash with all connectors removed), plug the power cable into a different power outlet that is known to be good. If the LED still flashes, the power supply should be replaced."


Cause?
The leading cause is the computer is dirty inside, to include the Power Supply
The next cause is that Electrolytic Capacitors have failed inside the Power Supply.

Solution is to replace the Power Supply.

The Power Supply used is the ATX form factor. The type of Power Supply used in over 80 percent of PC computers out there, and very readily available.

Size of the power supply case is approximately 6 inches Wide, 5-1/2 inches long (5.5), and 3-1/2 inches Tall. (3.5)

It is a 250, or 300 Watt generic unit, probably made by Bestec, Delta, or HiPro.

Scroll down to see the illustration and photo of the motherboard.

Power cables needed are;

A) 20-pin ATX main power cable,

http://www.playtool.com/pages/psuconnectors/connectors.html#atxmain20

{ ATX power supply's today come with a 20 + 4-pin ATX main power cable.
The power cable can be used as a 20-pin, or a 24-pin.

Add the 4-pin connector to make it a 24-pin, or do not use it, and have a 20-pin }


B) Enough standard 4-pin Peripheral power cables for the IDE (PATA) harddive, {1}, and the optical drive/s.

http://www.playtool.com/pages/psuconnectors/connectors.html#peripheral

Today's power supply's come with either at least 4, or 6 of these power cables.

C) One Floppy Drive power cable.
Won't be used for a Floppy Disk Drive on your computer. It's power for the Memory Card Reader.

http://www.playtool.com/pages/psuconnectors/connectors.html#floppy


All of the above power cables are typical when purchasing an ATX power supply today.
Need guidance in choosing a Power Supply, please state in a Comment.

Why is my hp pavilion 523w not working it just makes enough power to make a green light flash

The Green LED light you see flashing indicates you have a bad Power Supply.

Computer unplugged from power, computer on a table, computer case open, observe Anti-Static Precautions.
Clean the inside of the computer out with a can of compressed air for computers, (Or may take two, and a few Q-tips), and replace the Power Supply.

The Power Supply is an ATX form factor. The ATX style of Power Supply is found in over 80 percent of personal computers out there, and is readily available everywhere.

It's a 250 to 300 Watt power supply.
Probably made by Bestec, HiPro, or Delta, or some other generic power supply manufacturer of low quality power supply's.

Has a 20-pin ATX main power cable, and a 4-pin ATX +12 volt power cable.
Plus the usual amount of 4-pin Peripheral power cables, and a Floppy Disk power cable.

I have a burned out Bestec ATX-250-12z power supply for a hp pavilion a320n. I need to know if a Dynex® - 400-Watt ATX CPU Power Supply, will work in its place.

yes it should do provided your current psu is not a small mATX one. ATX power supplies are pretty generic. Make sure you get one that has enough connectors to suit your system, having said that, Considering it's an off the shelf PC I would guess most PSU's would have the right number and type of connections.

Power turns on then immediately off

The case shouldn't have anything to do with power getting to the motherboard. Though there should be a switch on the power supply to increase or decrease the voltage move the switch to the other position and see if the machine stays on.
