Dell Dimension 4600 will not boot, flashing amber light even with power cable removed
Hi,
I have been away for a few days leaving my pc powered off.
On return I have tried to start the pc but it fails to do anything when pressing the start button.
I have a steady flashing amber light.
If the backup battery needs to be replaced please can someone tell me the type of battery to use?
Thanks,
Paul.

THere are NO BACKUP battieries. The CMOS battery is a DL3032, This battery does not run the computer.
Power supply is probably bad.

First, open the case and check all the power and data cables, by removing and reseating them.
Also, check the Sequence of the Diagnostic Lights on the back panel, you can find the Diagnostic Guide and Service Manual HERE <ADMIN NOTE: Broken link has been removed from this post by Dell>
