try turning monitor on after you turn on the tower

When the system indicates to press F2 to continue then it must be the problem with the battery in the motherboard you can change the battery which is called CR2032, then the probelm must be solved for you.

I change the bettery. but the problem not solve. one thing I unpluged all thing (motherboard, hard drive,all all) from casing and put it another place. then I start it manually ( i connect the two pin of start...) then it start 1st time. no need to connect it 1 more what I said above. plz help me.

If it works correctly outside the case, it may possibly be the on/off button/switch that is in the case.
You may have to try putting everything back in to the case and try it again.
Can you get a new switch for the case?

no. another thing what about "press f2".

[caperjack]

no. another thing what about "press f2".

f2 is bypassing any bios/setup errors ,hit f1 and run setup/bios ,make sure time and date are correct ,set bios to defaults,save changes and reboot

[abu taher]

in bios the date and time are not ok. i change it many time but some it show correctly some time not. from yesterday when I connect the power pin manually it occurred same porblem again. (when I connect it two or three time then start)

It sounds like you may have a faulty motherboard. Have a very close look at all of the can shaped capacitors on it for any that have the tops bulged out, split, or leaking. If you find one or more capacitor like it then they will need to be replaced. For a replacement, the capacitance needs to be the same or a little (but not too much) higher and the same goes for the voltage maximum. The capacitance and the voltage will be printed on the capacitors!

[abu taher]

I think it is difficult to change for me. I am not expert on it. what you suggest me, I need to go repair it? another thing I don't tress this capacitor what you said.

[Rik from RCE]

If you can't do it yourself then a repair shop is the way to go I'd say!

It's a shame you aren't near me as I have my own computer repair shop!

[abu taher]

I attach my motherboard picture. can you tell me which capacitor?
