Hi. I need your help guys. My computer will not come out of power save mode. I was chatting with someone on MSN and my computer's light went from blue to orange and my screen went black and I got the message "power save mode, press any key or move the mouse to exit." I pressed all the keys and moved the mouse but it wouldn't exit power save mode. I unplugged my computer and I even switched around the RAM cards. I took out the CMOS battery and tried it. Nothing worked. I also took out my video and my graphics driver cables. It still does not work after I put everything back in place [except the battery]. I recently put the battery back in and it still dosen't work. I dusted my hardware inside my computer and cleaned the fans. There's this orange light on inside my computer as soon as i put the power cable in the back of my pc. I don't know what to do. This is so frustrating. I need your help! Here are some pictures of my computer[Dell Inspiron 530s A].
