I was a little confused as to where to put this kind of topic, so I apologise if it is in the wrong section.
I have an old(ish) computer thats been stored in the back shed for years. It hasn't been exposed to any water or anything, just some dust which I cleaned away. I pulled it out of the shed a few days back thinking I could set it up as a work computer and just use basic programs on it like word, publisher etc.
After I cleaned it up and put it inside, connected it to everything etc etc, I turned the power on and the computer simply does nothing. I checked all the switches located on the PSU and such, but still no luck.
Here are the specs:
Pentium 3, 1GHz,
20GB HDD,
CD Drive/Burner (unsure of what model/make)
380MB of R.A.M (3 128MB Sticks)
FDD
Onboard graphics, sound, etc etc.
I don't have a clue as to what could be causing this. I'm fairly good when it comes to computers, but this truely has me stumped. I've checked all the connection the mobo and all the hardware, they seem to be in well enough.
Any thoughts? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
