Help Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My machine has totaly died. Was playing a game and it froze, had to reset the machine to do anything but on re entering the machine the power light is not orange instead of green and there is nothing on the screen. Like the machine is in power save mode all the time. But basicly its dead. Any ideas?
- Switch it off, remove mains plug from socket so machine is totally off power, then switch back on and reboot.
If this doesnt work try rebooting with startup disc in A drive.

It may be a loose cable inside it has happened before. You can look in and ensure IDE cables are firm etc. But if in doubt phone DELL
