Unplug the power cord, press the switch for 10 seconds, plug the power back in, and press to turn on your tower; it should have entered safe mode.

You need to change the power supply, that's what I think it is. Good luck, it's not a big deal. Best regards.

No need to make 2 pages. 1: Power supply failure 2: Switch behind the tower set to off (it’s silly, but it can happen) 3: Failing hard drive (already happened) 4: Check wiring 5: Check RAM, GPU, motherboard, and CPU Sometimes just swapping the RAM sticks can make it work again; don’t ask me why, hardware can be tricky sometimes. Ask a friend to lend you a power supply, that will be a good start. You’ll know for sure.

j2 solution in my opinion either the power supply is dead or the motherboard is faulty if that is the case it needs to be replaced good luck

Hello, several problems: 1/ You moved your tower and maybe the RAM sticks came out of their slots. 2/ You opened your PC and unplugged some wires, namely the "power sw" [these are the small connectors that connect to the pins along with several others] and now the power supply won't start. 3/ The power supply is fried: try it on another PC, but be careful, it won't start empty; the wires need to be connected to the motherboard. I'm at your disposal for any further questions. Regards, Dan.

Are you sure it hasn't burned out??!! It could be that the hard drive burned out in which case the CPU won't turn on; or it could also be a wire that has come unsoldered or even a wire unsoldered in the power cable or it might simply be that the CPU's plug has changed maybe.

Hello, I just had the case this week and it was the power cable that was cut inside the sheath. Try another power connector, you never know. Best regards.

The static electricity present in the tower prevents the power supply from functioning, your power supply has a fuse that must be blown... The cost of a power supply is between 30 and 45 euros, if you let the tower rest there is a chance that it will turn back on but this problem will return, you need to clean the inside of the tower with dry air to avoid this kind of anomaly... If your tower works again, remember to do a complete restore of the system as some towers overheat due to a virus that modifies the power supply parameters in the BIOS.

Hello everyone, what did the test with another power cord show? Swap the one from the CPU with the one from the monitor if the latter lights up fine, even in standby. Does this CPU not light up at all? No lights, no fan noise, no repeated "beeps" when trying to power it on? What makes you think the CPU isn't fried? I suggest you come and share your issue on a friendly and helpful IT forum: http://aide-micro-hourrrah.forumactif.com Best regards, Alexis.

Thank you very much for your responses, but I found the problem. The problem is that my graphics card has burned out, as well as the port on the motherboard, so it's impossible to change it. However, HP has two graphics cards that are certainly less powerful, but it's better than nothing... In any case, I can still use it, but in a reduced capacity... so it'll last as long as it lasts!!! Because HP is clever; we can't change anything, and when we call them, no one answers... Let me explain: HP sells towers with components that are low-end (which is my case), and everything is certified! All this so that the PC lasts only a very short time... (I hope I'm not the only one affected because I find this terrible). Thank you again, and I wish you a good evening.

Hi. If your tower doesn't turn on anymore, it means your power supply is either burned out or unplugged. It's only after solving this problem that you'll know if the rest works.

Hello everyone, here is my issue: when I start my PC, the screen shows (monitor going to sleep). I removed the battery for 10 minutes to see if my PC would restart afterwards! But no, it does the same thing, it starts but I see nothing on the screen, just this message!! Can you please help me? Thank you in advance.

It's possible that the motherboard battery is dead; it has happened to me before. It was a flat battery; it just needs to be replaced.

anonyme · Answer

You take the tower and plug it into a socket; if no lights come on, you need to check for a burnt smell around the power supply. If there's no burnt smell, it could simply be that the power switch you use to start your PC is faulty. Depending on the type of PC, you can short it, but you'll need to open the tower.

Hello, this happens to me often. You need to insist on unplugging the power cord and trying to turn it back on. Do this several times... it might work!

anonyme · Answer

Hello, I don't know if your problem is resolved, but if not, I would need more details to help you identify the cause of your issue. Please don't hesitate to elaborate on the symptoms.

Hello, check if it's not the CPU fan?? It happened to mine, it's inside the case good luck.

anonyme · Answer

multiple causes multiple responses have you added a peripheral? does the motherboard beep on startup? does it start a bit and then reboot? does it make a strange noise and does that noise come back every 10 seconds? from there we will see what it has

anonyme · Answer

Either the power supply has taken a hit (always use a surge protector and surge protection). Or the computer has caught a virus (trojan).

anonyme · Answer

Move the tower to see the power supply, plug it in and turn it on. If the fan has a vibration, it's either the power supply fuse or the power supply unit that needs to be replaced. Not complicated to replace. - Unplug the tower from the power. - Identify and mark all connections in the tower (disks, motherboard, etc.) o Take a picture of the connections if you're not sure. - Disconnect all connections between the power supply and the PC components. - Unscrew and remove the power supply from the tower. (Don't lose the screws) - Take the power supply to a PC dealer for the technical specifications - Voltage, amps, etc... Check that the new one has the same number of PC connections - Buy the same one or a slightly more powerful power supply - Reinstall the power supply in the PC - Reconnect the connections and there you go.

There are two types of failures: either the button on the tower doesn't light up, which is certainly a virus that has damaged your Windows system, or the button at the back of the tower doesn't light up, meaning your computer is not plugged into the power supply, the failure is more serious, it is due to the electrical system. So to test this, plug in your computer and turn on the power supply; if it's minor, it should work. In any case, your antivirus is not strong enough.

anonyme · Answer

It's more intricate, but I've experienced the case: either the tower doesn't light up at all, or it simply indicates an error through its buzzer or strange displays on the LCD screen U94; in my case, it was due to bad contacts in the RAM (humidity?) so you need to open the PC and remove and replace the memory sticks 2 or 3 times (often 2 thin and long sticks of 10 cm) then turn it back on; it's easy, just make sure to open the PC from the right side, usually the left side; there's no danger if you get it wrong.

Beforehand, make sure that the tower does not start by putting your ear against it, as it may be a screen display issue. Let's proceed in order: 1- Check if the wall socket is okay by plugging in your vacuum cleaner if you are a woman, or your high-tech multi-position chair if you are a man (I'm joking). 2- Check the power strips, if applicable. 3- Check the power cord that brings electricity from the socket to the tower. 4- Check the position of the switch behind the tower (there is often one). 5- Check by opening the casing if the "power" button is functioning correctly, as it may be unscrewed, deteriorated, etc. The "power" button located on the casing must push on a plastic piece inside the tower to make contact. Press directly on this contact with a non-conductive tool, wood or plastic. 6- Check that you have enough money in your bank account to take it to the repair shop, because in the best case, it is most likely the power supply.

Hello,  like you, my tower won't turn on anymore, and I'm scared it might be fried because there's a strange smell coming from it; I think it overheated.  It just shut down suddenly, I didn't understand anything, I unplugged it and plugged it back in and it caused a short circuit :/  I really hope it’s not fried, I'm considering taking it to my dealer to see if it’s repairable, but if any of you can help me, I would appreciate it.  Looking forward to hearing from you...

Hello, my PC tower turns on but after a short loading time it tells me there's a problem, then there are restore and cancel buttons. When I press restore, nothing happens, and if I press cancel, it starts the process over. What should I do?
