Dear anyone We had an electrician in today to do kitchen stuff (well it is the holidays and we have been saving)( for ages) so electricity has been on and off most of the day (do u know where this is heading I wonder). I noticed when the electrics where turned back on my computer came on (had surge plug connected last week) so clever me I switched off the supply to my computer (obviously after shutting it down would I be so stupid as to not do that?) Well actually yes I would be and am fairly stupid as I did not bother to turn off the supply to my sons computer (we are not rich built both they are good but cheap)(didnt fit a surge plug last week I mean why would you?) Well actually my sons PC was good but is not so good now it wont start up nothing Ive put in a new psu (atx) and still no joy when I turn on the supply to the computer nothing seems to work although the cpu fan - a couple of times has made a very small movement one cd drive light comes on and then goes out as do the diagnostic LEDs on the motherboard but nothing else at all I get no power to any drives nothing works it seems to cut or short out in some way Any suggestions as to how many new bits to get or what to do its a K7T Pro (MS-6330) ATX VA mainboard with a 400 Duron. Thanks in advance for listening/reading Yours Ronald __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
