    When you press the Power Button, does ANYTHING happen?

    Do you have a surge protector or a fuse in the plug?

      yes I have a surge protector. And nothing happens when I turn the power button on. However, I can take the cover off, and there is a green light on, on the circuit board.

      Unplug the PSU.
      Replace the power strip.
      Flip the on/off switch on the PSU a few times
      Plug in the PSU and see...

      Does this machine have a modem card installed ? ?
      If so remove it before trying the above...
