Emachines 770 Problem

Hi,

I recently came back home from a trip of 2 days, when I came back home to switch on my PC, I heard a "pop" noise from the processor, and when I hit the main button on the processor to switch it on, nothin happens. I was told there wa 2 power cuts when I was away, and I thought there might be a trip switch within the processor, but I found none. The power lead works for the monitor though as I switched them around, so that rules out a dodgy lead. I can't find a fuse in the processor either to see if that's blown.



Any help appreciated,

Craig

How do you know the pop came from the processor?
Was the Machine on when you left for you trip?
Did you have it hooked up to a surge protector?
What made you rule out a Blown power supply?

Hello. No it wasn't turned on when I left the trip, the pop defaintely came from the processor as I switched on the mains plug. Never heard of a surge protector lol. Although I haven't ruled out a blown power supply.

Thank,

craig.
