I have this old computer that I'm trying to get up and running for my foster kids. Its a Packard Bell a-940-twr. Only problem I'm having is I'm missing the Power Cord that goes from the CPU Tower to the electrical outlet (thick black cord with 3 prong plug at one end and rounded type triagular piece at the other end. Sorry thats the only way i can describe it. Any one know the official name for it and so I can go to Best Buy or something and ask for it? Thanks

Don't buy one. I have tons of them. Message me with your address and I'll send you one...free, no charge what so ever.
If you live in the NY, NJ or PA I may be able to help you out more if you run into trouble setting it up.
What the heck is a 'computer electrician'???

They're all pretty generic. The one thing to look for is the shape of the socket where it plugs into the computer, as well as the size and orientation of the prongs. Any computer store should have them on the shelves (or peg hooks as the case may be).

You Should go to best buy and just plainly say power cord that should do it. Since most power cords are universal there should be no problem. Plus Color doesn't matter

hi there, to get admission to BIOS on a Packard Bell, on initial boot up press both F1, F2, or Del keys on the keyboard. this truly relies upon on how they set it up initially so try each and each and every, i ought to attempt F2 first yet I have, regrettably, a Dell. why? wish that permits
