When I press the power button on my desktop nothing happens. Checked power cord and power switch on back of PS.

Thinking that if it is a mobo problem that the fans would at least power up; currently nothing happens when button pressed, no fans, drives don't spin up. Nothing.

Anyone know any "easy" ways to check?

Power supply is 500 Watt ThermalTake, Mobo is an MSI K8N Neo; system has been running fine for over two years.

fine, brought it home, hooked everything up again and when they turned it on it would not boot up. A message said "please insert operating disk and press enter."
That's all it will ever do. I thought I would reformat but looked for that particular disk and could not find it. The manual said a copy should be made of the system when the computer is first started. This could then be used to get it going when and if something like this comes up.
I suppose the manufacturer should have a disk like this?? Is there any other way to get it going?
All the computers I've purchased had reformatting disks with them.

Runnings Windows XP home editions. Trying to do a total restore on the hard drive. All my data has been backed up on a memory stick and trying to do a destructive restore. I had made the restore CD's when I purchased the computer. It goes thru the process until it gets to disk 5 and then pops up an error message "preload\data9.inp" unable to load then it gives an option to retry or abort. I have done both and tried to start all over again but I get the same problem. Any suggestions?

I'm using PHOENIX Award BIOS, and just finished my system, but my HDD and DVDD aren't showing up under the SATA ports. I've heard that HDD's won't sometimes but there is no reason for the DVD not to, it will light up, open, close, everything. The HDD is a Western Digital Caviar SE16 250GB and the DVDD is a Lite-on Superallwrite. If I have to enter these in the BIOS myself, how do I do that?

I have an HP xw4300 Workstation with 2 Pentium 3.2 GHz processors and 2 MB of RAM. Since the day this computer came out of the box (about 11 months ago), it is sometimes very loud. It doesn't sound like the fan; actually, it sounds like that grindy noise a hard drive can make. I can't figure out why it does it sometimes; there doesn't seem to be a correlation between what I am doing and the noise. It's not hot and it's not slow. I've tried cleaning out the whole insides with compressed air. I thought it was just that computer until someone else got the same one and hers is quiet! Any ideas?

My computer will not turn on... The power went out this afternoon and my computer is the only thing in the house effected, besides all the clocks being reset. My laptop still works, but it wasn't plugged in to the outlet. I also have a plasma in the same room as the computer, but it is uneffected as well. Any ideas?

On starting up my PC (Windows XP) before I could log in the following was display

Checking file system on c: The type of file system is NTFS. The volume is dirty. It then started a clean uo starting at 26% all the way to 100%. Some of the files stating "Recover of orphan file". Well what does this mean, trouble? The PC seems ok now.
