I have been troubleshooting an old PC that was lying about my house, a couple of years ago I remember trying to switch it on one morning however it would not work. I took it to a PC repair store where they said that it needed a new mobo which would have cost $300 at the time. Last week I decided to take the repair shops advice and order a new mobo now it only costs $30. However I have this installed and the problem still persists. I then decided to try a new power supply as well, however this did not work either. I have tried running the system with separate sticks of ram but the hdd light is constant and the PC is still dead. I am beginning to give up on the computer and soon am going to return it to its corner, so I decided to ask to see if some of you guys can give a heads up to try.
The PC is an old Siemens Scaleo 600 with Intel Pentium 4 chip.
The computer would be handy for a small bit of typing so I will give it another go yet.
Thanks in advance for the replies.
