started right up. This is a DELL Dimension 5100 with a 3.2ghz, 1.5 gig ram, with a 305 watt power supply. So here I bought this unit from a private person. He had to load up some software and I asked him to power it up and off when I was there. I got there yup powered up working finished loading nero up then logged off and turned off the computer with no problem waited a few seconds hit the power button - nothing would come on green light on the motherboard waited for the green light to go out after uplugging it opened it up check connectors all tight figured bad switch. Couple hours later starts up no problem take it home plug it in .. yup start right up try to hook up to internet found no ethernet driver ok I take care of it tomorrow left the unit plugged in and off come home hit the power switch nothing -zero green light yes. Left unplugged over night plugged back in starts up with no trouble. He is no help and I'm lost. Help- what is the problem here??? Plus I want to add a video card like a 8600 gt to play games what should I do????
