    That's Dells way of saying you need a new power supply.

    Some more details are needed.
    Did you buy this in Asia?
    Sis you Vista OS up to date?
    Did you recently update something?
    Like a better sound card?
    Or better graphics?

    Does the link below get the service manual?

      I brought it years ago from dell.com
      Yesterday when I logged on the system performed a update
      Apple update was the last I remember cause I had to reboot my computer
      No new sound card or graphic card.
      I use this computer for my small business inventory I probably use it a few times a month.
