Doesn't sound like a button problem to me though, sounds like PSU.

494871 2006-10-28 03:05:00 Ok how long on your pc tower should your power button last? years?
Do they wear out? need fixing or cleaning? or replacing?

as Peach................:stare: is having button probs......... lately a few times a week maybe when turn pc on...........push button and lights at side ( those pretty sparkly ones :p come on) but none others, and the monitor starts up but says nothing, no words or anything, no error or even a no - no signal words.............

Is this a bad sign? as it means it doesnt start and a reboot is needed and then it goes thro the system didnt shut down, needs to scan blah blah thingy....

What should i or could i do? :stare:

please dont tell me this is the beginning of the end........ i havnt save anything to dvd yet...

Till I got ASUS mobos that can boot the system, by pressing defined keys on the keyboard (with PS/2 kbs).
