It is my sisters computer, she says that it started rebooting itself a few times, then it turned off and now it wont come back on. Nothing moved the computer or jarred it.
I went and bought a power supply, changed it out, it didnt do anything. I checked all the connections, etc., and I got nothing.
I reset the cmos.... nothing. Tried different power cord and a different outlet, still nothing. Also checked the connection between the power button on the outside of the comp and the mobo....it was fine.
So I have two questions:
1. Is this a common problem and what can I do to fix it?
2. Can I just buy another motherboard/cpu and install it in the emachines case? It is from about 2003 or so.
Thanks
