And now it turns on for a second, then turns off, and repeats this. I dun goofed. Thing is, the power button has always been finicky. I have to press it multiple times, sometimes holding it down for 5 seconds, sometimes not, to get it to turn on and off. So I got impatient this time when my PC...

Found it thank you!

Computer keeps turning on for a second then turning off, repeatedly. Trying to reset the JBAT1 but I don't have a jumper. The next advice was to take out the battery for a bit then put back in. Problem is I have no idea what the battery is. I have a pretty good idea, but am worried about doing...

So my computer froze. And the power button I have has always been very finicky, sometimes it would take me many presses of the button to get my PC to turn on. So, when my computer froze today I tried the regular power button to no avail. So I decided to flip the switch in the back to turn the...

Note: PC is almost 1 year old. My PC runs fine when it's on, but every once in awhile I will put it to sleep or shut it down. When I go to push the button when it's shut down, I sometimes have to push it quite a few times to get it to turn on. Once on - it's fine. But 2/3 of the time I put it...

Interesting. Well I'll just keep only the computer and monitor plugged into it then. Thank you for the information. I'll buy a better one eventually.

Hmm...why do you say it'll do more harm than good?

Hello all. From recommendations I've seen on this forum, I decided to buy a surge protector for my gaming PC. It's just a 500 joule Hyper Tough 14 gauge, but it's a fine start and was only $3 at walmart. I currently have my PC and Monitor plugged in - I'm wondering if i should plug in my air...

Hello all. Just installed my Verizon fios and my Mac is able to connect to the 5gz, but my PC can only find the 2.4gz network. I tried a few things that I found on this forum but not having any luck. Is it my network adapter? Do I need to upgrade? Also if I decided to use an Ethernet cable...

Hey all, I've been experiencing a lot of lag in Battlefront 2 and even Battlefield 1 lately. A lot of stuttering, like when a big explosion happens or a gun goes into high power mode the game will freeze for a second. But my rig shouldn't have these issues - 1080 graphics card, i770 processor...

Do some mice and keyboard just NOT have the ability to wake a computer from sleep?

Hello, So I have an IBUYPOWER PC model BB931. I wan't to make it so that the keyboard or mouse will wake the computer from sleep. But when I go into the keyboard properties, "power management" isn't there. On the mouse, Power management is there, but "wake computer with this device" is greyed...

I really hope that's the only issue...but how would I go about replacing the power button? It's located right on top of the computer here's a pic. https://imgur.com/a/Oaa8A

Hello, My rig is an IBUYPOWER model BB931. i770 intel processor 1080 nvidia geforce gpu 16 GB memory Liquid Cooled So, sometimes I have to press the power button on the top of the rig many, many times to get it to turn on. Once on, it's fine. I have no problems. Sometimes, it'll turn on with...

Yea I tried the massage thing for a few seconds but was actually more worried about causing more dead pixels. I can live with those two teeny weeny dots. They go away/change color depending on what angle I look so it's no big deal. Besides, not like I'm EVER going to notice them when playing...
