What may be the possible reason and what is the solution ?

Thanks

Possibly the power supply is defective. Is the light steady or blinking? Also any other diagnostic lights lit?

Usually a steady light is a bad motherboard and blinking is the PSU.

Given the age of this system The hard Drive could be bad,  CMOS battery BAD,  Power Supply Bad.


Not worth repairing when you can get a much newer and faster system for very little.

Solid Amber power button is dead motherboard.
