![Fix Flashing Orange Power Button Dell, not Booting. SOLVED! (light of Death) [RAM & CMOS Battery]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/eWuyOIYKZ04/mqdefault.jpg)
''WOW'' i was getting ready to give up and throw it away.....But thanks to you Blue Kap.....Followed your instructions till the end and everything worked out beautiful....Now I still have my PC working again......Great job ...thank you for saving me money and time......Take care Good Buddy......
You are just forcing the power supply to turn on, that doesnt fix the issue why the light was flashing in the first place. Blinking Amber means the power supply is receiving power but is unable to distribute the power properly (Bad power supply) This video only describes how to force the power supply to turn on, the other components will still be getting insufficient power. Just get a new power supply.
No in fact this is a problem in the motherboard the power supply is working good i have the same problem and taste the power supply and deliver the correct voltage in every cable
Not to wotty, someday power supply make go boom! all set ok?
I have this problem every day! Bruh!
I have that but everything is getting power but no signal on the monitor
This is what I call improvisation. Great stuff. This means the power supply is buggered. Will have to get a new one.
@KevinBurns nope the board is not fried I have a dell optiplex 780 sometimes it turns on sometimes it doesn't it has amber light of death with 1 and 3 buttons lighting up blinking and that's because I opened my power supply and I checked the board out and saw a bulgy capacitor so most likely that is not carrying the normal startup voltage that it needs so u cant fix a fried motherboard
Happiest day ever I thought my pc was spoilt thanks bro 💯 working 🙏😄
I have a Dell Optiplex 7010, and three days ago, it didn't powered up (1 blink pause, 2 blinks = bad motherboard), so I'd decided to take it to a repair shop. There they told me that it was unfixable, that I'd to buy a new one. The assurance company didn't cover it, so I was gave it up. Then I saw your video, but also another one that recommended to renew the thermal paste for the cpu and remount it, so I told the shop's technician to try it. This afternoon I went to the shop and they told me that it was unsuccessful, so I brought back the pc to my house decided to try your fix. Then, SURPRISE ! without doing your fix, at first attempt, the pc BOOTED without issues. What the fff***k ! I'm puzzled Dell, I'm puzzled, I hope it lasts and stays working. I think Dell's pcs behave in a very strange way, because there are lots of cases around internet about booting issues. Right now, I'm happy to write this on my revived dell 7010 pc... By the way... By doing this wire's procedure, you are "re-flowing" the ground thing to the case of the computer... Not a bad idea, but... Is it dangerous ? Any idea of the possible reason ?... What are the electrical fundaments of your idea ?
Thanks.... worked in my case(optimplex 380)
Ps: installed of living wires hanging out, you can make a cavity in the front panel(plastic part) and add a small switch
You are the truth, the explanation was a little long, but I took the patient if following what you did, and now mine is working after doing the samething, I will install an on and off switch in it
This is pretty much like you're forcing the PSU to turn on, its a good idea yeah, but those light meant to be a dead PSU and if anyone tried it and it didnt work you should look for replacement PSU for the same model. Nice and simple tut, keep it up.
what is psu
oh really? should i buy a new psu? should it be same model?
I can't thank you enough! I followed your directions and it worked great! I really appreciate your time and effort to create and share this video. God Bless YOU!!!
Hello frankie
my dell system was doing this many times years ago. i took the motherboard out and strip everything off it and clean the board with rubbing alcohol.also the bottom side of the cpu i clean. it has been 3 years and i never got that problem again.
Lol I put my vga cord into my gpu and idk this orange light jus started blinking idk if that was the problem tho idk but could u help
I mean mother board
Yes bro
Thanks alot man. I did exactly as you have instructed and to my surprise the dead system started working very fine again. Thanks a Million you have saved my money. Am grateful Man.Cheers and keep up the good job.😀😁
In my case even switch button is not glowing. It OPTIPLEX 3020
बहोत बहोत धन्यवाद सर जी तेरा जादू चल गया मेरा डेल PC चालू हो गया ........
I encountered the same problem, it seems like it was the power supply that was at fault. I need not to cut the green wire, I only tested the PSU's (Power Supply Unit) functionality by cutting both ends of a wire (I had another wire) and inserted it on the ATX Power Cable, the first end is adjacent to the green wire and the other one is adjacent to any black wire (You can check "PC Tip: Testing a Power Supply with The Paper Clip Test" it's the same method I did.) My PSU worked and when I plugged my ATX Power Cable back to my motherboard, my PC worked. I hope this might help you guys out.
I would consider this technique only in an emergency where you had to have the computer up and running. Its important to note that is only a temporary fix, something is amiss that needs to be addressed. Most like PSU or PWR short somewhere. Thanks
Not to wotty, someday power supply make go boom! all set ok?
Change SMPS
Oddly, when my "blinking amber of doom" started, my computer was on and kept running...it...seemed to be running actually just fine still but yeah, not having it would be better of course :)
Thank you bro, you just saved my computer, dell optiplex 755. God bless you
Bhai konsa wire cut Kiya Dell oplitex 755 me green wire nhi he pls batao😭😭
I have Dell Optiplex 620.Of late, it has been behaving like this. (Normally when you start with power supply, the fan will start and then stop till you push the "on" switch of the front panel of cabinet.) When recently, I try to start the 'on' switch on the body, it will show orange light and not turn green to put the system on. I was puzzled. The system starts at random attempts. No certainty. I tried SMPS cable, Mother board supply socket, battery etc. ( all these removed and again plugged in) It still gives random observation. i.e. sometimes starts and works and many times on strike, i.e. orange light again. Now while writing this comment, the system put on through trial and error method. Let me see how long, how many days it works normal. If it fails again, then I am sure going to go the way shown in this video.
My earlier problem was fan making more noise, running at high speed. This was solved sometime back by myself by cleaning the CPU fan and cooling fins. I had obtained the jelly to required after re-fixing the cooling fan That worked for month or so. Fan was very silent. But when I again opened the fan and cleaned it and replaced with jelly, it still makes noise, and goes on high speed. All this shared for use of viewers. Thanks.
On occasion popping the battery out and resetting the bios will solve this problem. And while your at it a little cleaning doesn`t hurt.
Then how you solve that problem plz tell me in brief coz same thing happening to me ~_~
Not to wotty, someday power supply make go boom! all set ok?
Cutting 24-pin ATX connector lines... Masking tape... Bare wires out the front...
Absolutely dreadful.
@Dawid Jandzinski ahahhahhaha
well on a pos as a test who would care
Ay if it saves u money, it anit stupid!
readyxxi a
@@anthonyreeves8685 you could just use a switch instead
or swap the switch is usually whats bad
Thanks for your video.getting same error on Dell optiplex 980. Used your trick and it works, Saved my 1000 of rupees and my Dell system, as no one ready to repair it. Great video.
Hi, i’ve Optiplex 960 but my light blink after 30 mins with a sound like tac-tac-tac in the power supply,I don’t know if we’ve the same problem
Give me exactly your situation plz
Optiplex 7010 Flashing orange power button same problem! Your videos same tips do for Optiplex 7010 PC its @ risk motherboard or not ?????
Wow! it's good job, i am from EGYPT
The real an only problem is to repair the power supply. I just repaired an Optiplex 760 power supply that needed all new capacitors.
And you achieved that how
Wrote the values of the existing capacitors down, went to digikey and ordered new ones. Desoldered the old ones and soldered new ones. Make sure to buy Japanese brands and choose low ESR ones when possible.
in few cases is the PS
This video dosen't work for my Dell 790 and my power button still being orange light.
Please show me way how I can fix it by other ways.
Thanks
@@yangonhousingservice9446 Replace the power supply. Or recap it, if there are bulging caps in it.
ALso try to do a hard reset on the bios by removing the old CMOS battery for 5 minutes while having the system unplugged. (also hold down the power button once unplugged for the first minute). Then replace the old Cmos battery and plug the pc in and power it on.
Sir, thank you for the great video. Can I just replace a new power box instead as I’m not too good in messing with wires?
Sir, will you plz guide us, instead of cutting wire & joining new wire, which part we need to replace as a professional or as per company fitting????
psu or motherboard :)
Is this last long? works for me thanks optiplex 755
Bhai konsa wire cut Kiya Dell oplitex 755 me green wire nhi he pls batao

You be vetty, vetty , good, Not to wotty, someday power supply make go boom! all set ok?
I did the same thing now the power button is not turning on. Only fan and hard drive is running.
But the main problem is display is not showing.
Can you help me?
Bhai konsa wire cut Kiya Dell oplitex 755 me green wire nhi he pls batado😭😭😭😭😭😭
Mine 780 optiplex,orange light,blinking 2,3 and 4..
Fan turn on full speed,...
What should i do?
Do i do it like you did????
Methods to solve the issue.
(1)If there is a blinkin' amber orange light on your power button that means Your Power supply ain't malfunctioning. To solve this one: There is a cable coming' outta your power supply which has sorta a bunch of wires that is connected to the Motherboard as the MAIN CABLE... There's a wire coloured green. You'll need to cut this and tape it on anywhere of your Computer's Case/body. It will boot up the computer with showin' a green light on the power button Or if your computer didn't boot up See the next Method for the motherboard.
(2)If there is a solid amber orange light on your power button that means Your Motherboard ain't malfunctioning. To solve this one: Unscrew the CPU Cooler and right close to it there would capacitors... Two capacitors around a little AC and there are 6 capacitors around 3 ACs... You gotta find which one is damaged. The one which works fine is sorta Glass-type coloured like a little light orange. The damaged's one surface is black... You just have to break it through a screwdriver or anythin'. Just take it outta your motherboard... Your PC will start up... That's what's the problem is. And yeah puttin' a bulb inside your Computer would help a dyin' capacitor and leavin' your computer with the case open on the SUNLIGHT would help you boot i up. I dug a lot to fix this up... I expereicned you didn't. Try these methods I told you...
Where do I need to tape the green wire on the motherboard or outside the case
@@flamynoob9316 He did say to the outer case, not the board, otherwise... POP!
Putting it into a paragraph and fixing up the spelling would help.
I have a same problem i have followed ur all instruction but in the end pc shows orange light & started fan working but only show orange light white should i do
I have the same problem the fan turns on but there’s is still orange light on the power button and the computer doesn’t start please help !
Enjoy cold breeze from pc fan 😄😂😂
I didn’t fix the issue with cutting the green wire, but thanks bro give me a direction, I changed the power supply and my computer works.👍
Plz tell me price of power supply
when i do that my fan only shift once
@0.2uikorraM dead psu you need a new one
Same
Blue Kap, what is the wattage ( 400, 500, 600 ? ) of your power supply in the video and what is the model of your Dell computer in the video?
says 755 at the end of vid. Most dell`s are the same configuration.
This helped me figure the rest of the problem I had thx
always hook the wire with the open on the right of the screw you attach it too, so when you twist it tightly, it doesn't try to open itself up...wire on the left, open on the right...
I got a dell 360 desktop fan working but the power botton and the motherboard light is orange ,how can u help me fix it cause I try what I saw in this video and it never work .I even clean the motherboard and fan nothing still happened
Does this work with a dell optiplex 7010?
Great video... though, out of my absolute ignorance i have a question... Why not connect the green cable directly to the screw of the PSU?
Thanks is there onther way of grounding with out making wire srick out ./even in the lower supply thanks alot
Thanks. My Dell Optiplex 745 started working after trying this!
I have this problem too(solid amber light)
But i managed to fixed it.
Here's some steps
1. Remove the power connectors including the 12v 4 pin connector
2. Replace it with a-Processor/CPU
3. Clean the ram slots
4. Connect all the power connectors to see if its beeping
Note: if its beeping means your motherboard is alive.
5. Put back the ram sticks
6. Put back all the components and the connectors
7. Your Computer is fixed!
Hey, I Have The Optiplex 330, It's Running Windows XP, After The Windows XP Loading Screen It Doesn't Boot, The Computer Just Freezes At A Black Screen
try re installing windows from a bootable drive, sounds like a software problem.
So my "new" Dell Inspiron 530 I got a month ago has a solid amber light on the power button. Surprisingly when I pressed the amber button it went blue and it DID POST a couple times and I checked out the BIOS. I put a solid state drive in it and powered it on but it won't POST now. I disconnected the SSD but it still won't POST. It now still has the solid amber light but when I press the power button it goes blue like before but it will not beep. The screen doesn't power on now either. I press the power button again and it turns off. I don't have to hold it in to turn it off. I guess I'll get a new Power Suppy Unit but do you know if it might be something else? I'd hate to get the new PSU and it still does this. I DID replace the CMOS battery as I was told the old one was bad and the guy I bought it from replaced it with another old battery and he wasn't sure about it. So I put in a new one. But my power button isn't flashing orange which I think means its the CMOS. It's light is solid amber. So solid orange means a power supply problem, I've read. Could it be something other than the PSU?? I will point out that there is two different kinds of memory in the computer, all four a 2 GB's, but with the amber light meaning a power problem could it be the memory? Any help is appreciated.
thank you so much, i think this video will help me to solve my computer
Thank you. It worked. This is a lifesaver.
how to resolve the "power on no display" issues in dell inspiron small CPU, can u please tell me about this?
Btother do you have any other way pleese
now the cmos battery as its lower voltage, now i need to purchase a new one, as ive notice that some times when u twist the wire connected to the green wire and the other one is at the body of the power supply, the fan speed sometimes increase and decrease how can i say this you will determine it when you power it on
It didn’t work. When they weren’t shorted it started flashing amber and when i connected them it went back to solid amber.
I have problem in my pc. When i start the pc the beep sound is produced for six times. I also change the rams but it doesn't work. Please solve my problem.
Same like as
How to solve u bro
Excellent I followed and my pc is working
Thanks. I just got my optiplex 780 out of storage for 2 years and I had a yellow light. I spliced the wires and it turned on but it's not displaying on my monitor and the 3 and 4 light stays on. I'll sort it out another time.
It is related to memory
what if it does not work :( i still have a blinking orange light, when i use another psu the pc works, is my psu bad and this trick wont work?
Thankfully i found after 7months
I'm not adaptor wire used local mobile charger wire used well no issues anything work PC??
Excellent... My booting up is no longer a problem
My motherboard's open button is orange light but not blinking, please fix that!!!
Hykal Kadir same idk what to do :(
Check your motherboard circuits it may be damage...
It locates near display cables on the board!
I had this issue when I work on it I found the problem as I mentioned above and replaced with new circuits and my desktop working now!
My computer shows a still orange light and the fan starts up but it doesn’t go anywhere from there no start up it just turns the fan on please help !
I have the same problem I recommend searching up the computer type you have eg. Optiplex 7010 and then the problem your having
did you solve the problem?
@@TyoooZX I had to extract all the data from the hard drive into my new pc and bin the old one off unfortunately
Sir,I have the same CPU , my problem is that when everytime I start my CPU it shows error of " Alert, error intialliging pci express slot 4". But all my PCI slots are empty.
Please Sir, help me to get the solution for this.
Samee
YOU ARE A LIFESAVING GENIUS, I THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH!!!!!
i already try to cut the green wire comming from the power supply, as discused in this video create a spare wire and splice the other half of the green wire to your spare wire, then the other wire connected to the body of the power supply, i already tried this but same issue is created and not the new cmos battery that i installed suddenly drop his voltage
Is not working for me hi still orange light and blinking on 1and 3 please let me know if you have idea
thats what i have too
How to know my Dell when motherbod is dead
Did you have Amber light on motherboard board before fix
Will this work on the Dell procession T5500 same problem Amber light thanks
code 1 and 2 orange light. do you have the solution? DELL PRECISION T3500...
This method helped me with Dell optiplex 755
Thank you very much
how
i do this and my optiplex 755 cpu turn on but no display
Thank you very much you saved me. God bless you. I am from Kenya, Africa
You vid is 8/10. You need to speak louder I can barely make out a word you are saying.
Hey, friend. Turn on the Closed Captioning. 😊
My optiplex 380 shows orange light on mother board,itried to do what u taught us but it didnt work
Wow 👏 this worked I thought it was the end for my PC you're a genius, thank you thank you 😊🙏
I have bought a spare PSU and it didn't work. Tried the fix in the video and it didn't work. Removed four "non-mandatory" capacitors around the CPU and the same. Do you have any fix?
If anyone is still having problems with this go to TechSupportDell and look for "no power?learn about dell's built in self test for power"-video title
yeah, pretty much this. Unfortunately for me, i found that both my PSU and motherboard were fryed
2:47 will a data cable wire work for making these connections?
the motherboard doesn't get turn on just a orange light and a beep. and there times that it turn on by itself just when receives current
Buddy. I've got an Dell Optiplex 740, suddenly all the usb ports stopped working. I wanto to try with a reprogram the BIOS(desoldering it). The fact is I don't know where the BIOS chips is placed on the motherboard. Could you help me please?. Dou you think this can work it? thanks anyway for answering me.
is not working on my optiplex 520, i change psu also not working also, so i decided to change the main board after that is working again.
change the cmos battery lol
I went ahead and cut the green wire, but the problem persists. Blinking amber light. The Dell site indicates - The PSU is receiving power from the Source but is unable to distribute it. Anyone has any idea what next I should try?
This happened to me a while ago and the problem was the GPU, had to remove it and use the integrated one. I'll have to install another one using less PSU power.
But is the correct fix to replace tje power supply?
GOOD TICHING KARTE HO AP 👍👌👍👌👍👌
Sir my HP z420 starts without power botton and no mouse, keybord lights and didplay, can u help ???
Thanks bro. It works. but the fan runs high than normal.
Tells that your system has not been properly grounded. You are giving too much electric current to your system board. Your CPU and/or RAMS will explode sooner or later!
I have done this but now the computer just a a constant orange light and the fans are running at full speed. anybody know how to stop this?
Bro did you got the solution
@@riturajchauhan3378 I want too my computer same turns orange
Thankyou for this video man my computer problem is solved thankyou so much
Thanks it worked on my Dell Optiplex GX520🎉🎊
had the same problem, tried it, did not work, made a clicking sound but amber light kept on flashing, optiplex 990
Can it work for 9020? Because I tried and it does not work
Worked like a charm! Big heaps of thanks man.
I tried it on my 620,,it worked,but it turned off by itself 10mins later..and after i tried it again,i can only hear the fan for 2 secs n it wont turn on,n i smell smthng burning,
App na windows nai ki ho gi
You no do it good right? but Not to wotty, someday power supply make go boom! all set ok?
Got my optiplex 780 back...thanks!
My Dell Optiplex 990 displays similarity, but am afraid to cut the wires yet. Is there any way around cutting the wires in event that is not the issue?
Did you cut the wire? In my case, following this wire-cut technique did not work.
There is other simple way. . Press the small light button behind , next to the power supply for 5secound, together in same time as power button and release When you see green, it 'll take sometime about 10 MN , . I think it need to worm up to hold the green light that is the problem.. I do this every day now.
I try your video. but its the same orange blinking but the fan is functioning the mouse and keyboard turn the light on. but its orange blinking not working. to me
THIS WORKED FOR A DELL XPS 420.....LIKE A CHARM.....THANKS!!!! :)
Not to wotty, someday power supply make go boom! all set ok?
Thank you Very Very Very Much Sir it is very use video you help me to resolve my pic again thank you
i did the same procedure but orange light appear and i joined wires pc was not start and after that i removed 4 pin cable of power supply then i joind wires and then was current passed
