    POWER SUPPLY
    « on: September 06, 2008, 06:34:54 AM »
    Does anyone know what is wrong with my PC, it won't power up.  A few days ago I it did turn on after pressing F2 during start up, then the time and date were wrong.  Do I need to replace the power supply??

      Local Hardware Store? One Dollar Store? Pretty much any store that sells accessories.

      Remove the CMOS Battery and take it with you to the shop.  ;)
