Compaq presario sr1115cl wont power up

I was playing dark age of camelot for several hours and logged out, shut pc down, unplugged power box(which had monitor, tower, and sterio receiver plugged in it) from wall then moved the table with all of them on it to different wall plugged power box back in which the receiver was on and started playing FM radio, monitor received power as saw power button light up and speaker light came on but when i pushed tower power button it does nothing. i thought at first the voltage switch below the tower plug was a small circuit breaker and switched it from 115v to 230v and still didn't turn on. when tower plugged in and on either 115v or 230v the green light right there blinks. the power went out in the house this morning and now the computer won't power up. the green light under the power cable blinks, but the light on the front does not come on. Any ideas? Same thing only I shut everything down one night went to power up the next morning and nothing but a blinking ligh infront and a little green light in back to to repair shop and it worked there brought it home and nothing changed still blinking and no power at all.And Mine is A Compaq SR1120NX.

Remove the power supply after everything is unplugged and take it to your nearest electronics store. They should have a tester there. This is probably the problem.

My zoostorm netbook wont shut down i really need help with this thanks.

Perform a hard shut down on your computer by holding the power button down for roughly 6-8 seconds. After that, take out the battery and unplug the power cord. Once that is done, hold the power button down for 10-15 seconds. This will reset the computers cache. This might solve your computers not shutting down issue.

Try draining the power of the computer first. completely shut it down by pressing poweer button for like 5-7 sec. then unplug power supply from the outlet. then press and hold power button for another 15-20 sec. After that, plug back in the power cord, and turn computer on normally.

I have a compaq computer that works great for 1 hour the shuts do

Is it shuting down? Or just instantly going off.

If it is shutting down, adjust the power settings.
  • Control Panel
  • Power Options
  • Make sure the scheme you want is selected. For a desktop it should be Home/Office or Always on.
  • Make sure that System Standby and Hibernate (if available) are set to the length you want.

Compaq presario 700 can only be turned on 6-7hrs after shut down?

wow !!!

open it and check the power system (in the laptop) check for damaged capacitors or any other components that look damaged. Also if any check the coils (i think thats the english name) to be undisrupted, because they have a huge role in starting some power systems ...

If u have any electrical mesurement device use it to find out where the problem might be ...

The BIOS has no relevance to the manifestation that u describe, so it is not the issue!
