hi i have a problem with my pc last night i was just about to reinstall windows xp when the pc just cut out now when i go to turn it on the fan on the cpu and power supply just twitch then nothing at all but there is power going though the motherboard as my bluetooth's led is on:
As you're getting some power through, can't be just a blown fuse in the electricity feed. Friend had that symptom on a 3yr old Medion last month, ie system twitched on power on but didn't spring awake - and I suspected his PSU. His small town local PC shop put in a new PSU - warning him that the PSU *might* have damaged other things and so couldn't guarantee success and it sprang back to life and he's been okay for last month. Thought his local PC shop handled it very professionally - and charged him less than £30 including parts/labour, which was just as well as friend can't really be trusted with a screwdriver let alone electricity (though heaven knows what quality of PSU they used of course)! Think that's what you should be suspecting the PSU first.
thankyou for replying mk-donald the the power box is about 3-4 years old and is some rubbish adt thing so going to try a new power supply see what happens
