Brand new Inspiron 660 has no power

Hi Bbbccc,

I would suggest you to drain the residual power from the system:

• Disconnect any external peripherals (flash drives, printers, external hard drives) from the computer
• Disconnect the power cable.
• Press and hold the power button for 15-20 seconds.

You may try to swap the power cable of the system tower with the monitor and check if that makes any difference.

Keep me posted with the results. I will be glad to assist you.

That didn't work. A green light on the back of the machine comes on briefly when I reconnect the power cord but the machine will not turn on. 

I've had it out of the box for less than 4 hours. It was on and I clicked the Macafee icon and it immediately died and wont come back on. The power cord is secure.  I don't feel like I should be having to take apart a machine that is brand spanking new.
