P3 Wont Open

BlackEyeRed · 04-01-2007, 02:18 AM

Hey
I unplugged my P3 computer so I can work on my P4 computer (my p4 is usually in a very tight space where I cant work on it) and when I plugged my P3 back it refused to go on
after a few more clicks of the power button I heard it go on for a second and then off right away, since then it hasnt gone on again

I have no clue what could be wrong
Anyways thanks for your time

90% power supply and 10% on/off button. Probably a tired supply, how old is it?

The issue is power supply related it seems. Make sure all connections are secure and try start the system again. If it fails, try to get hold of a similar PSU and see if this will work in the system.
