xsilverrock30x@yahoo.com PLEASE HELP.... My issue is when the computer fell about 6inches on it's side. the power button would not come on. So I changed out the power supply and have some power back,such as the dvd drive door opens, and the mother board comes right on. But now the power button light don't come on. and nothing comes on the monitor now. It is a new monitor and the adjustments for color and light options are the only thing that shows on the monitor. what possibly could of went bad and even caused the power supply to go bad. the power supply is new now but what else should I be looking for when a computer falls. any suggetions would be appreciated. Thank you for your expertise.

Jump to PostTime to throw it 6' under the ground.. Kidding.. This is a serious problem. Anyway, suggestions:
check the video card for damages
maybe the power led or the front panel buttons are just disconnectedOther than that, you can wait for other more experienced members to post here.

Check that the motherboard is not cracked and that none of the capacitators (the cyclindrical things) are leaking
