Do a search for Seagates Seatools for Windows and install it on your system. Run the long tests and see what you come up with
 
Ok I got this confused with another post... Dell Dimension 4700. Any other numbers on the system? Serial, Service Tag?

it says i need 259 Ws plus 30% is about 336 Ws but that was more than i had before.
That means that the PSU you had before wasn't good enough for your system and it put too much load on it so it finally gave up.

Get a 350W PSU and you'll be sorted. What country are you from?

Edit: If you want to find out if it is a hard drive problem, download the diagnostic tool and install it on a different PC, and install your hard drive as a slave and have the tool check it over. Drive diagnostic utilities compendium
 
lost! (You really are clueless.)

1. Replace the PSU with a PSU of equal or higher wattage
2. If the computer STILL won't turn on, then you have a hardware issue elsewhere.

How many countries have Walmart ?

My guess is that he from the US of A.
We have a store called Asda that's owned by Walmart but y'know.

It doesn't say where he's from and I didn't want to assume anything so it doesn't hurt to ask.

I don't want to go round newegg looking for links if he can't be supplied by them, otherwise it would just be a total waste of my time.

Yes I agree,
Everybody have a Merry Chistmas and a very Happy New Year 2008!

Quit following me.

I don't follow anyone, I simply look at posts I think I might be able to help with and then if I can then I post. Simple as that, there's nothing personal in there, just a complete coincidence.
 
it's been many months and i finally replaced the power supply and the power lights stay on and the fans are running but the computer dosen't start up.
 
Tmagic is right, its the motherboard. If not, (hard to believe) then you just didn't plug everything up. :?
 
the computer runs! so i was about to scrap the computer for parts but i looked inside it and I saw a square four prong slot near the processor. so i fit the prong from the power supply in it and it started up and works fine except for the solt for the keyboard dosen't work and it runds slow because it dosen't have enough ram.
 
So you will have to use a USB keyboard and buy yourself some more RAM. We can't physically see your motherboard, but this "missing" 12v connector is a common mistake
