Computer not starting up - Any ideas?
I have a packard bell desktop that is about 5 years old, and I use it for wordprocessing. I turned it off last week, and when I turned it on again, rather than do a POST, it does nothing at all. I can hear the fan running, and the power light comes on on the front of the box, but nothing else happens. No keyboard lights, the monitor does not wake up, nothing. Both the monitor and the keyboard work fine with another machine that I have so I don't think that that is the problem. The machine is a celeron running Win 98se btw.
So far I have tried a boot floppy (nothing), and a boot CD (again nothing). Any ideas?
