I fixed my workstation Dell T1700 SFF what failed to power up
-
I posted long time ago for my old HP computer that can not power up. I got lot of of tips from this lounge. two weeks ago, my area got a power outage and my workstation Dell T1700 SFF can not power up. I speculated the power switch button or power supply may be the key reasons. so I ordered a power switch button for $5.99 and power supply for $30.00 from eBay. yesterday I got all of them in my mail box. so this morning I installed these two components. it is very easy to install them with Dell's simple and clean design of chassis. press the power button, then it starts to reboot now...

There's nothing like diagnosing and fixing your own equipment. Always gave me a sense of accomplishment, and a feeling of independence.

yes, I have such feels. also I gained more confidence on Dell computers. So all computers in my home are Dell...

Boo! You should have installed one of the components then tried. Now you don't know which part was busted. Some of us are invested in the story. ;)
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

since these components are ordered and hard to return, so I installed them all in one shot. based on symptom, I think it is power supply issue.

Well, he could always reinstall the old components one by one... :-\

it is true to reinstall these components to get answer. the truth is: when I removed hard drive and DVD drive, power switch wires and power supply wires are closely put under one direction in this small form format(SFF), it is not worthy to put up these wires again....
