Hello guys,

I have a computer problem with my XP. Currently, I'm having trouble getting it to power on. Only the light and the fan comes online. Can someone tell me what the problem could be, or if I can fix it my self?

If I'm in the wrong forum, Please move the topic to where its suppose to be at.

You're fine where you are but we're gonna need alot more info on the OS; machine and what happened prior to this to carry on...

Its a Windows XP - Emachines. Before this occured where it wouldnt turn on at all I would have to unplug power chord inside and plug another one on and try it or unplug it from the outlet in the wall, then wait then turn it on. But now, its only the fan and light that wants to come on.

eMachines are notorious for using cheap PSU's....
Borrow another PSU and swap it in there...if it works properly buy a new PSU.

Whats a PSU? So, I can know what to get..
do you think that would be the problem?
