Power outage, now pc will not power up at all.

last night we had a power outage, it lasted 8 hours. The HP media center m7060n, is connected to a powers surge protector, but today I tried to switch it on and nothing, not even a light on the power switch. The back of the computer has a flickering green light when the power cable is attached, this stops eventually when that is removed. There is no movement from the fan or noise at all when i do try to power up.

Sounds like the surge protector didn't protect. I would change the power supply.

It sounds like you have a board that is not booting at all. Remove everything from the board except the system RAM and CPU and switch it on. If it boots now, shut it down and then replace each individual item one at a time, booting the machine after each item is refitted/connected until you fit something that prevents the machine from booting. Pay special attention to system RAM sticks by removing them/it and refitting it as bad connections in the RAM socket can also cause a boot failure but removing and refitting the sticks usually cures this issue.

Hi all...!!! Power failed and came back minutes later. Can't start HP Media Center M7060n Green light on back flashes slow when power not connected, slower when power cord connected but I press the ON...

On HP computers, I believe that this means that the power supply or the motherboard is bad. I assume that the outage was due to the thunderstorm and you may have received a surge. In your manual, there should be diagnostic light codes where they will outline the exact meaning. Again, to the best of my knowledge, this means that there is a bad power supply or a motherboard.

Power outage, now pc will not power up at all

OK FIRST A POWER SURGE PROTECTOR WILL ONLY PROTECT YOU 7 % OF THE TIME, WHICH YOU JUST REALIZED. SO YOU NEED TO BUY A BATTERY BACKUP ALSO KNOWN AS A UPS.... I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH. BRING YOUR PC TO BEST BUY AND THEY WILL TEST YOUR POWER SUPPLY, IF IT TESTS OUT OK THEN YOU BLEW SOMETHING IN YOUR MOTHERBOARD. GET A BATTERY BACKUPS/UPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
