New Power Supply, still won't boot
My dad has a Dell E521 pc, was having what seemed like power supply issues, he pressed the power button but pc wouldn't boot.
I swapped the power supply for a brand new one (now 400w instead of 305w) but the problem persists. On the mobo there is a steady amber led for "aux power led". The green power led on the exterior of the casing lits up ok. The green light shows on the usb keyboard also. I have replaced the mobo's cmos battery just in case because it's old. I can hear the hard drive scratching/working, and the PS fan is working. But I don't get any audio beep from post, and the monitor doesn't turn on either. The PC is running Vista, and using the onboard graphics, no cards. Any ideas what/where to look next? tia. |
