My hard drive was blown out by my internal power supply going out. Also did a job on my mouse. I have always had a green light on the front of my computer but nobody seems to know what the red light is. It just appeared after I got my computer back from the shop.

What kind of computer do you have? Is the thing working now? Might be some feature when a new hard drive is installed...Research your computer...

That is the hardrive activity led, if it blinks, the program is accessing a file or running the hard disk, if it is dim red, hardisk is idle..

Is it on all the time or flickering on/off?
If it's on all the time, no idea... they've probably wired something up odd in the box, so ask them.
If it flickers on/off it's probably the disk activity light.
Has it got a symbol by it?

This sounds like it may be the hard drive activity light.
It will light up whenever your hard drive has activity.
This is normal.

did they replace the green one with a red LED or is it another light?...if it is another light...they probably hooked up the hard disk activity LED.

usually it is the hard drive led. open up your computer and you can cross check the motherboard manual and the plug for the led.

It will blink every time that your hard drive is read or written too.

Ask the computer shop, if you do not have an owner's manual.
