Hey there, I'm running Windows 2000, on a dell, and every time I press the power button....nothing happens....no POST test, or nothing on my screen. I determined that it's not the Power Supply as I do get a green light, and my fan kicks in....please help!!!!

did this suddenly happen?

What is the model & # ?

Hear any Beeps?

Does the monitor light go green? or yellow? no monitor signal such as No Signal Input?

Is the computer still under warranty?

no beeps, it doesn't go through the POST test....I'll have to get back to you with the model #, but I can open the DVD, and CDROM and the monitor screen is black with the power button being orange (like if it went into sleep mode) I have tried it with another monitor, and it still didn't work......Thanks for the reply.

once we know the model No.we can find out details and help you along with trying to sort it out..

Without sensitive measuring equipment I wouldn't rule out the power supply just yet. Do you (or a friend) have another (known good) PS that you could try?

It could be the PS, motherboard, or connections.

Yes I do
