Caution
If you turn off the computer, always wait at least 20 seconds
before turning it back on to prevent damage to its circuitry.
If your computer is set to boot from drive C, make sure that the
IDE hard drive is formatted. Also make sure that the primary
IDE controller is enabled by checking the setting of jumper JP13
on the system board; see “Changing the Jumper Settings” in
Chapter 4.
The computer does not start and the power light is not lit.
Make sure the power cord is securely connected to both the
AC inlet on the back panel and an electrical outlet.
The power cord is securely connected, but the computer
still does not start.
Check the electrical outlet for power. Turn off your computer
and unplug the power cord. Plug a lamp into the outlet and
turn it on.
You installed or removed system components, and now
your computer does not start.

are securely installed in the correct sockets.
