Dimension 8300 won't boot
Here are the symptoms... 1. Computer does not come up when power button is pressed. The power button blinks on/off orange. I've disconnected/reconnected A/C power many times, even letting it sit overnight unplugged. 2. There are no lights on the ABCD indicators. Upon opening the case I discovered 2 things. 1st there is a green light that is ON on the mobo, 2nd the power supply was extremely clogged, which I cleaned. No PS fan comes on at all and obviously no posting occurs. Seems obvious the power supply is bad(or crippled) and I am hoping the mobo is ok but I have no way of testing it. I wanted to run it by the forum first. I'm going to check all power connections next. I'd appreciate any input.
