Ok heres the Deal fellas, im new on here for this help, My Pc went Into standby one day and the next thing you know the power button wouldnt turn on my PC, nor the reset button, i ad to unplug the PC to turn it off, well i flipped the switch in the back first. turned it back on from the back, my mobo light came on and tried to turn on the PC and wouldnt turn on, so i changed wires from my mobo where my pwr and reset wires were and tried to turn it on from that and didnt work. Now im stuck not being able to turn on my PC. Im on my other one right now (piece of **** haha).

any momentary switch can be attached to the power switch wires to start it. if you look around on the web you'll probably find a replacement switch.

i don't recommend this but if yer handy with a screw driver you should be able to start the pos by jumping across the 2 posts where the power switch connector fits. just a momentary touch should do the trick.
