I have a Dell PC that's a little over a year old. Here's its description on Newegg.
Here is the problem:
1. Yesterday ,the computer shut down when I walked away for a few minutes.
2. When I tried to turn it back on, the power light turned orange, then quickly tuned white, then made a faint beep, and turned off. A few seconds later it repeated that over and over. The monitor indicated that there was no input signal.
3. I tried a different cord and I tried plugging it directly into the wall instead of a UPS. No difference.
4. I took it into a repair shop. The guy called a few hours later and said it worked the first time for him!
5. I went to the store to witness it. I then had him try it with my power cord and it worked fine. Booted up right away.
6. I took the PC home and it still wouldn't boot! Same issue as before.
7. I plugged it into a different outlet and it still wouldn't boot.
8. I then too my computer to a friend's place, and it wouldn't boot there either!
So it works in the repair shop, but not at home, and not at my friend's place. I can't even imagine what the issue could be. Any ideas?
