I can't get my dimension 4600 to boot up. I put it in sleep mode 2 nights ago, via the keyboard, and now can't boot it up.
Now when when you say your computer doesnt boot up, do you mean it wont Power up at all? or does it turn on and wont boot into windows.
2 things you can do for either of these problems
1) If your computer doesnt power on, you may need a new power supply, contact me me if you need help buying a power supply,
2) if your computer turns on but doesnt boot to windows try putting in the ORGINAL windows disk you have when you FIRST turn on the computer and try and do a REPAIR YOUR CURRENT VERSION OF WINDOWS.
Your computer will boot off the windows disk and then prompt you to repair you version of windows. DO NOT REFORMAT YOUR HARD DRIVE or DO NOT REINSTAKK WINDOWS
let me know if this is of some help.

i think you might need a new hard drive. How old is the computer. Hard drives sometimes need to be replaced because of the constant powering up, spinning, getting shut off, and unfortunatly getting shutoff by unplugging. Try this:
when you turn on the computer. And its done trying to boot up. And it stays frozen try pressing the spacebar a couple times, and tell me if you hear the hard drive spinning.

Thats the first thing I did, but no go. Thanks
When I power it up, the green led comes on on the front panel. The green led is lit on the motherboard, and the drives(dvd, cd burner). come on. No power to the keyboard, and no vidio signal. I just put a new power supply in it a week ago.
Forgot to add that, the HDD wont come on either. I mean it doesnt spin, click or anything
