Hello all,
Got a problem with my computer as in i wont turn on! When i push the on button the *working* light and the cd drive flash quickly but nothing else happens. Changed the fuse and tried other leads but no luck. Any suggestions.
Cheers.

Are the beeps continuous until you turn the computer off? If not, count the beeps...

Sounds like the PSU to me. I've had one that just turns the fans and then cuts out.
Check the power cable to the motherboard is connected, just push it in, if it won't go in anymore then it's OK.
Shame you are to far from me or i'd have a look for you as i've nothing else to do today.

this may sound strange, i had a faulty net work card which made this happen. If u have had the same card then its somet else, but when i tried my faulty card this happened.
