I am a frustrating problem with my computer whenever it is shut down the hard way, like when we have a power failure. When I try to turn it back on, everything powers up right away, like the laser mouse and the monitor, but the cooling fan on the computer kicks in and the DVD and CD drives lights blink like it is doing something as soon as I power up, like it is in the middle of a process and the monitor turns on, but remains black... not a thing comes up on the screen. I end up having to power the computer up and immediately power it down by holding the power button, and I do this over and over again until I can turn the system on without cooling fan kicking on right away. Sometimes it works after the 2nd or 3rd try and sometimes I can repeat this process for 45 minutes until it works. Anybody know why this happens and how I can fix it? This is the ONLY problem I have with the computer.
