Inspiron 560 won't start up!
(NOTE: It MADE me choose a file, so I just put in a picture)
Hi guys,
I got an Inspiron 560 about a month ago. It has had a few minor problems along the way - at first Firefox (specifically sites with Flash if memory serves) would completely lock up the computer. I started using Chrome and the problems went away. Lately the computer had problems "waking up" - if I left it on overnight, it would be locked up when I tried to wake it up the next morning.
This morning, however, I couldn't get it to wake up at all, so I turned it off and when I tried to turn it back on, nothing happened. I unplugged the power supply and plugged it back in.
Usually the front light is blue, but now it's an orange or greenish color. On the back there is a big green light right below the power plug.
I will contact Dell support when I get home, but I'm at work and was wondering if this is a regular problem or what? The online support chat is either too busy or not working yet - I'm open to suggestions. I'm an IT professional, but don't want to void my warranty by messing around too much - not sure how much I'm allowed to :)
Thanks!
