Hi,
My three year old desktop crashed 3 days ago. When I press the power button, NOTHING is happening. First I thought it was the power supply. I changed that and still the problem persists. The next bet might be CPU or motherboard. I don't know how to figure out what is the problem. Can someone suggest a few steps to nail down the problem?
Also, if I am unable to fix the problem I am thinking of replacing the desktop with a laptop. But I do need to access the internal hard drive of the failed desktop. Is there any way that I can take the hard drive from the desktop and access it from a laptop through some adapters?
Thanks
SM
