FIXYA The power supply output of my Dell Dimension 8200 desktop pc is delayed for minutes after i press the ON button in the tower front. The momentary button switch is OK. The delay is 15 minutes if the computer has been idle for a few hours, but is only a few seconds if the button is pushed shortly after XP shuts the computer off. Fearing that some unknown cause will completely prevent a power-on, I have been keeping it on 24/7. Does anyone know how to fix it, or where I can look for a fix? I posted this weeks ago, suspecting a bad switch, before recognizing the delay.

SOURCE: computer will not turn on at all. Dell Dimension 5100 desktop

I would unplug the power supply from the motherboard, wait a little while and then plug it back in.
Try to power everything back up and it should come up.

I am assuming you are getting a light on the motherboard that indicates power is being supplied?

It's not about the switch, a problem may be caused by bad power management control driven by XP. Ask on DELL's forum about any patches about this. Finally, check-up your power management scheme.

No power to tower. Pressing power on button on front of tower fails. Is there some kind of reset or fuse to look for?

There is no easy fuse. Did the computer get turned off at the back? Some power supplies have a switch on the top of the tower. Did the power strip get turned off? Have you verified that the outlet has power?
If this is not the problem, it sounds like a blown power supply. Do you have any lights on the system? If not, take the tower to a local computer shop and they can very quickly diagnose a failed power supply.

Dell Dimension B110 will not power on when front button is pushed. Plugged it into another outlet without using power strip....still didn't start...purchased New power supply and installed still nothing...

check the bezel/power button
try to open the tower but you have to make sure that its unplugged/ after unplugging the power cable press the power button for about 5 secs to drain the flea power then check the power button maybe its broken or the cable connected to the power button to the main board is damaged or loose.

Main power button LED is flashing or solid yellow

This is a major problem that crippled Dell. Moels Optiplex Gx260, Gx 280, and Dimensions of whose mdel number i don't remember have this problems. This signal shows that either a power supply or your motherboard is malfunctioning. If you have an insurance better use it now or else get some technical assistance.

Dimension 8200 will not turn on

Try a new power button. Also does the machine power light turn on at the front of the machine? if so check that the CPU is seated correctly as if it has come out of position then the machine doesn't boot. I would like to think power switch though.

Thanks J
