Hi,
Please help me diagnose the issue here. My PC won't power up today, was running fine yesterday. When I push the on button, it lights up and flashes momentarily, but the fans don't start and nothing powers up (no noise whatsoever), so I presume something's been triggered so that it can't startup unsafely. Here are the details I can get (sorry, rest were on the PC!)
PC model: Advent PQD6002
MB: Foxconn A6VMX
CPU: AMD Phenom x4 64bit (don't know the precise model)
12v dc brushless CPU fan
12v dc brushless fan on back of case
Power supply: ISO-400PP
I am handy enough to change one of the above, but I have no idea of diagnosing which is at fault. I have cleaned all the dust from the fans and heat sink, but still no change. I have read about replacing the button cell battery, but won't that reset the BIOS - and is that even related?
Update: Just prior to ihog's comment i changed the cmos battery- obviously no change.
Would be really grateful for any help.
