Hi,

I put my computer to sleep mode for several hours.
When I press the power button ON (front panel). System powered, LED on, CPU fan on but never boot to Windows. I waited for a minute or so, press the POWER button (front panel) & hold 30 seconds. The system shutdown/powered off. I powered back up, still no boot to Windows.

So I power OFF completed and with unplugged power cable.

Now, I just plug the power cable back in. Turn on the switch in the back & power button (front panel). I'm not getting any power on. I also take out CMOS battery and put it back in.

Is this meant my power supplies is dead?

I got all 6 LED light up except -5V with my MB ATX 24pins.
I'm not getting -5V lit up, do I need to buy a new power supplies?

These are SATA connections tested and I'm getting different LED results each time.

Those PSU testers simply test voltage, although if there's an issue with the PSU not providing enough amperage the test will pass and the system still won't boot correctly.

Do you have a PC speaker for any error codes or anything? Otherwise I'd start with the PSU but may also be motherboard related.

Unless you got some ISA bus floating around you don't need a -5V. Power supply probably doesn't have one.
