Ok. I have been working on an E-machines T-2824. The problem is that the machine will not power up.When I hit the start button, nothing happens; bios does not open, no fans spin, there are no beeps . nothing except a small green led located at the upper right hand corner of the CPU. I have checked the continuity at the switch and it checks out ok, I tried back probing the main power molex (20 pin connector) and found no voltages present. Cosequently, I replaced the PSU. I have checked the connections at the switch connector to a schematic I obtained fron Intel and found the connections were correct. I had tried powering up after removing the internet card---- no good. I reinstalled the internet card and tried swapping slots for the RAM---- again no good. I visually inspected all the capacitors for obvious signs of defect, (bulging and burning)---nothing. I have examined the motherboard for any signs of mechanical damage or scortching and still have not found a reason for it to not power up. Has anyone out there dealt with this sort of situation? I am fresh out of ideas and need input. I am not a computer professional, but am simply someone trying to learn something new. Actually, this is getting personal now..... it's either me or the computer, lol
