My eMachine froze today on the screen saver, tried to Alt Ctrl Del to restart, but nothing would happen. I ended up hard crashing the computer by unplugging it, waited about a minute, then plugged it back in. Tried to start it back up, but the monitor just remains blank. Not only that, the power button on the front of the tower usually lights up when you turn it on, it does not anymore. The computer itself sounds like it's turning on (IE fans run, the MoBo light comes on, etc). The one thing, is that the fans continue to run at 100% now. Basically the only time the fans would run that much is when it was loading a program, or doing something, they would quiet down once it would be stationary. Now they just run that loud indefinitely. As I said though, the monitor just stays blank, nothing comes across it at all, neither does the light on the front of the tower.
I'm really not sure what I did to the comp, so any help would be appreciated!

When you press the Power On button, you are pressing a plastic button that pushes against a Power On switch. The switch is separate from that plastic button. The switch is a Momentary Contact Switch. The construction is a small square metal box, that is open on the front. Has a small plastic lid that covers the open box front. The small plastic lid has a hole in the center. There is a small plastic button that protrudes through this hole, and is flat on the backside of it. Under this button is a convex shaped spring metal disk. The plastic button makes the spring metal disk go flat. This creates a contact with a terminal at the bottom of the box, and the metal box itself. When you let go of the Power On plastic button, the metal spring disk resumes it's convex shape, and breaks the contact. Suggest you go down to your nearest Mom and Pop computer store, and take your Power On switch with you. (Don't forget to make a note, and a drawing as to where the Power On switch wires go, on the motherboard) Show the tech at the computer shop the Power On switch you have, and they'll probably dig you one out of a box of them. Cost? Probably a couple of bucks. If you do not care about the aesthetics of your computer, you can use any Ol' momentary contact switch, and splice it's wires to the wires you remove from your old switch. Just make SURE it is a momentary contact switch, and not an Off/On switch! You are creating a brief, 5 Volt circuit. This turns on the Soft Power On of your power supply.

what about the p`4 wire.
it would help if you actually asked a question rather than just posting some random stuff like most people do.
we're volunteers here and we don't read minds so it helps when you ask a real question.
I would consider a bios update but first clear the cmos this way.
1) unplug the computer 2) remove the motherboard battery 3) push the power button in and hold for 15 seconds to discharge the caps 4) use the motherboard jumper to clear the cmos, this is explained in your manual 5) Leave the computer like this for 30 minutes to ensure a good clear, this is a little extreme but do it just to make sure.
Move the jumper back to the normal operating position, reinstall the battery, plug it in, cross your fingers and try and boot from cd.
