all i did was last night, i took the power supply out my Dell, 2 try on my other computer, and then i took it out and plugged it back in the Dell, i plugged it in, the green lights on the riser board and motherboard light up, but when i hit the power button on the fron of the computer, i dont get a green light i get a orangeish light? any reason why? i tryed reseating the Slot 1 CPU, and tryed replugging in the power supply 2 the motherboard, and still the same thing, any help would really be appreciated :) .
 
Orange is usually suspend, but obviously that's not the case. Did the other computer work? My thought is something could of happened to the PSU when you tried it on the other computer...
 
the light comes on when i press the power button, after i press it, the light blinks continuiously. when i plug the power cord it, the fan usually spinned, now it doesnt, if the PSU was bad, would it still light the green lights up inside the case? on the riser board and the motherbaord?
 
nevermind guys, i got it fixed. last night i rechecked all the wires and stuff, wasnt it, tryed the power supply from a previous Compaq, got a high pitch, unplugged right away lol, then this afternoon, i got home, took the power supply apart, took out the fan, and replaced it with another fan, it worked!!, took it back apart and put my original fan back in, thanks you guys 4 helping me with this, take care.
 
oo, and also, i thought it could've been a conflict, soo i took out the only thing in my PCI slot, and that was my sound card, but thats back in now.
