Dell Inspiron 530S Amber/Orange Power Button

As I press the power button, it stays orange and I hear a 1 small beep noise. The computer does not turn anything else and fans are not working. And there is the same color light on the motherboard. When the power button is off there is a green light near the power plug and then it turns off as I turn on the power button.

Before this event, the power button was orange and fans were all working. Next the power button flashed between orange and blue then stops and continues about 3 times. Then it turned off all fans and the power button stays orange. (Both senerios were unable to power the monitor, mouse, and keyboard and does not emit a green light around the ethernet cable.)

Hi CodyOnFire,

Thanks for posting.

1 Beep means a possible motherboard failure.  http://dell.to/2p7LYxY

The orange and blue flashing power button indicates a malfunction
