- FIX A COMPUTER THAT WON'T POWER ON
PC not booting up or turning on? is the computer dead? well in this video we will go through some basic steps you can take to try and fix your computer. No computer problem is the same and to a non-tech savvy person fixing or repair a computer can be a bit daunting.
Just follow these basic steps and you should be able to diagnose your own computer problem. There are many reasons why a PC won't won't turn on but it you follow this video you should have a working computer or found a solution to the computer problem that you're having.
First off keep it simple and cheap.
1. Check for burning smell inside the computer or PSU (power supply) and check for any blown caps.
2. Do you have any spinning fans? or attempting to spin?
3. Do you have any lights on the motherboard? or any activity from the computer?
4. Check for any loose cables or components and make sure they are fully inserted. (make sure you are getting power to the motherboard.)
5. Try removing the CMOS battery for 30 mins and then put it back in. Or replace the CMOS battery with a new RC2032 battery. You can also remove the power cable and CMOS battery and hold the power button on to deplete the power from the computer. Hold for 30 seconds)
6. Check the power cable on another computer or better still if you have another cable try that on the dead computer. Replace if faulty.
7. Any beeping sounds coming from the computer?
8. Remove any unnecessary cable like CDROM drive and try and power on the computer.
9. Check the power button or bypass the power button on the PC case.
10. Check PSU with power supply test if you don't want to buy a new one right away. If you have a spare PSU use that for testing. Replace PSU if needed. (You can jumper the green and black wires with a paper clip to see if it powers on.)
11. Check ram sticks one at a time and see if it boots or turns on.
12. If you have a black screen and the computer is on it could be a GPU graphics card issue.
13. CPU or Motherboard issue. how do you which one it is? well unless you have a test bench setup with that socket motherboard to test the CPU you will never know. Most of the time it's the motherboard that's failed. But at this stage, you need to decide to buy or build a new computer or replace the motherboard to test the CPU. I know when you brought your £1500 or $2000 computer 8 years ago you think it's still worth that today but it's not worth £100 today. Time to make some decisions on what you want to do.
Remember testing a dead computer yourself can be a costly venture and a computer tech should have all the right tools and parts to save you money in the long run.
I am sure I have missed some bits out but it's hard to think of them when your filming.

Never would've thought it was the power cable being loose, thanks man
I punched my self in the face when I seen it
Me too haha
My guy I appreciate u I read your comment tried it and it work thank you for saving me time❤️😎
Thank you!!! My power supply cables were loose from moving and you resolved my problem so quickly!
Im just 13 and i wanna fix my computer cause my dad will kill me if he knew what happened to my computer xD
Alpha Wolpie I
Alpha Wolpie -Still Alive? LoL
Im 11 years old and im trying to fix my pcu ;-; becuz i cant afford a new pcu
Whats wrong with it? Symptoms? Type?
ReganMarcelis it smells like a burning battery
What the hell? A new power supply? I just bought one 2 months ago :(
That's Why Your Name Is Dead Meme
Bro same here i fucking bought my psu like a week a go
Then request another one
There's a warranty my boy
Same. I hope its not that. But mine has lasted 3 years. Internet told me they are supposed to last 10 years bullshit
You probably fried it..
3:55 oh thats why... thanks mate
Swapped cable for another one and worked fine. Brilliant. Thank you.
I spent about an hour on forums and none of them mention the cables from the power supply to my board. Fixed my pc in 4 minutes after finding this video!
**Spends hours troubleshooting. Finds out hours later that it was the PSU switch**
lol the dreaded power switch was not switched on hahahahaha
Britec09 hahaha so funny
Xenon777 do you mean CPU
Perry Pelican no psu and cpu are two diffrent things
i literally spend one hour and it was actually that i didnt press the powe button LMAO
To make a long story short: If you are lucky: 1) does the MB get any power from the PSU? Are the diods lit? Do the fans spin briefly before they go down when you power on? ==> change the BIOS battery (1 - 2 €). If you are less lucky: 2) Burnt smell coming out of the PSU? (not necessarily) ==> change the PSU (25 - 300 €). In this case add a 100 or two for the things the burnt out PSU took with it when it went away (I bet it's going to be the hard drives and DVD/BR burner(s)). If you're terribly unlucky: 3) MB does not get power, possible burnt capacitors on it ==> forget it all, you may start building a new PC right away (while a few of your old components may be still usable)... I was "less lucky" myself - PSU, 3 hard drives, 1 BR burner. Thanks to Thermaltake 750W PSU & its faithful 12 years long service, may the thrash bin contain them lightly all... 🤣
5:20 did the trick for me thanks
Should we keep it like that or get a reset switch ??
@waterhek mine didn’t either how did younfix
Thanks bud, you saved my day! The power button was broken, switched to the reset button as main power button worked like a charm! I owe you one!
Wgat minute is thi
i actually didnt know why my pc wasnt starting, then when you started talking about the power cord, i looked at my computer cord and it wasnt even plugged in my pc, so that helped a lot, otherwise i wouldnt have found it
Thank I never thought it was my power cable. And cried for an hour
My laptop was dead and when I read the comment I checked the charger an
now I feel like a dumbass
@@ethanabbott1871 we are all stupid hare buddy
Water and electrics is not very good
I spent 10 min watching this vid over and over
Then i give up, and i just press and hold the power button on both monitor and the CPU
_it worked_
Wtf man!!! Thanks for this comment!!!! Mine worked!!!!
Wtf bro it really worked😂😂😂😂 i was fixing it since 4 hour😂😂😂😂
Mine doesn’t
What button for cpu ?
F2PMan how long did u hold for?
THANK YOU! Dead CMOS battery. Computer would not boot, but still had power to USB's. Newtek 3play computer sat in garage for 5 months during Covid. Then would not start/boot. CMOS battery replaced and turned on right after.
Hoping that's my case. Power supply is good, tried jumping to turn on but no luck. Took cmos out and out back in and no luck, will have to hit the store in the morning for a new battery, fingers crossed.
good video,ive basically done the same without actually having seen a video like this.
no power on mobo,even with built on button,no led light either.
checked psu after checkomg connections etc,psu dead.
replaced psu,same symptoms,psu mot doa.
uninstalled all part,only leavong mobo and cpu + fan installed,still dark.
added 1 ram,changimg between my 4 8gb bits and slots,checked gpu,still dark.
breadboarded mobo,only cpu and fan installed and 1 ram, still dark.
must be mobo,i concluded.
got z97 gaming g1 mobo, cant check caps cause dedicated coolers. cpu cant be failed,cause mobo would still light up led and/or power buttons
I have the same board what was the cause
I have a refurbished Dell with XP so I can use old scanner. Scanner lid abruptly fell on glass top and I got blue a screen error. When trying to fix, the keyboard kept disconnecting. Your video briefly mentions bad ram. Cleaned the ram which fixed the keyboard issue. Then I was able to fix the no boot problem. Thanks so much for expertise and saving my dinosaur desktop!👍
I was struggling aaaalllll day trying to see what was going on to find that my power cable was broken on the inside...... I guess it is depressed
Thank you so much !! Having not used my old tower computer for a year (it was in storage for a house move) it wouldn't power on. I watched your video all the way through then opened up the side, hoovered all the dust out, checked all cables were tight and then changed the CMOS battery (3:12 in the video) and hey presto....it powered on. You've definitely saved me a shed load of money...thanks again. The format of your video is good and what you're saying is clear and concise.
you know how I fix a PC when it doesn't power on? I hit it till it does...
lol going old skool hey lol
Throw It out the window.
Same LMAOOOOOOOOOO
Me too hahaha%$
Percussive maintenance is often the way to go. I used to use it with TVs - and it never worked then either ;( !
Thanks a lot!
Thought my power supply was done, but checked the cable connectors and made sure all was tight and Boom, computer was back to life!
I owe you one. Keep up the good work! Atb/Hazze
I need help, yesterday my computer was working fine with no issues at all and the last thing i did (as everyone else would) was shut down the computer. Next morning I try to turn it on and nothing... I've tried reconnect the cmos battery, reconnect the gpu, and ram sticks. 10 hours later as im writing this im still struggling to turn it on.
Ok just solved it with 3 steps before turning the desktop again:
1. Removing cmos battery.
2. Placing ram sticks in different slots.
3. Using differnt pci-e cable for my gpu.
AlphaZero how am I supposed to do that im 12 ;-;
@@user-ns9fcFirstly i would recommend you getting someone in your family involved to see if they can help you or help you get assistance from technicians
AlphaZero aye omg same
@@alphazero4676 hi so u seem like u know this stuff so everything in my pc lights up but then doesont turn on on the monitor yes I did try another HDMI cable and another monitor
Great video, covered everything, even the CDRom drive. I had that happen to me only once in my 40 years of computer repairs. no one believed me.
Yeah I have seen it a number of times where the CDROM drive failed and the computer would not turn on.
Thanks Brian :-D
One utterly daft problem that will stop a machine is the usb socket under a flap.
i've found them shorting v+5 to case, usually because of people walking past and catching a cable plugged in, it breaks the contact support tongue and the contacts are bent into the shell, it may not short out straight away.
I got caught out because i could not find the 5 volt short to ground in the computer, that's because it was not inside.
I did call it some names lol :-D
Yeah, I guess if you built a new computer that screwed it to the case which I have seen people do will ground it out, much more issue I could list I am sure. USB can be a pain.
Why didnt I think to make sure it wasn't a loose connection sooner. Literally thats all it took to fix it. Thanks for making me realize the obvious solution.
thanks for video, ended up resolving my issue by pulling out the power cable to the right of the RAM on the motherboard, blowing a tiny bit of dust and popping it back in
You're welcome.
Nice vid! Don't mind this format at all!
Yeah its a bit long winded this way and waiting for someone to say just get to the point Britec lol its a bit more podcast format.
TBH, the biggest difference is that script gives you raw information while I feel free-talking gives more actual experience. And is more immersive. Better video format IMO.
Hey can you help me I was in the middle of gaming then my pc just shut off and said it was going on power saving mode just a few minutes before my power went out.
Now only the monitor works and there’s no sign of life from my pc when I try to turn it on and there’s no smell or anything and all the cables are plugged in. What should I do?
My scenario: I went on vacation for a week, and when I came back, my computer wouldn't turn on. It would try to turn on for 1 sec, then turn off and stay off for 3 sec, and it kept repeating that cycle. There was a heavy thunderstorm the night before I arrived. My computer was off and plugged into a surge protector, but I guess it the storm still messed with it. I took out all my RAM sticks, and the computer finally broke the power cycling, but wouldn't load windows, so I turned it off again. I plugged the RAM sticks back in, and voila, computer started and booted up like normal. Hope this helps anyone who has a similar situation!
@John Philip I'm having a similar issue. I had my computer unplugged for about a day and when I plugged it back in and went to turn it on, nothing happened. Even the modem wouldn't turn on when everything was plugged in. I noticed the surge protector was bad, so I tried a new one--nothing. Then I turned on the monitor first; it came on. Then I turned on the CPU and both it and the modem turned on and seems to work fine! Not sure what's going on here. Everything in my rig now starts up only if I turn on the monitor first. Something must be fried somewhere.
Omg… this exact same thing happened to me. I went on a vacation for a week there was a storm, I came back and my pc wouldn’t power on
Change slots with the ram
I just want to say thank you so much. My pc wouldn't start after a year I left it in good working condition. My problem was the cmos battery was dead, I just replaced it and now it turned on.
Thank You!!!! My computer is back on because of this video!! I started with switching cables - that's what it was!! So grateful for you and this perfect video!! 😘
thank you good sir!!!! it was the battery. swapped it out and the PC started right up! May God bless you!
My issue got resolved...thanks...it was dry CMOS Battery.

Well, I certainly like this format, with your extemporal comments, which makes for a more enjoyable and personal experience and a good learning format for the viewers.
If you feel uneasy with adlib speech, there is an old technique of having an off camera list of each point you wish to cover, it acts as a safety net for you. The trick is do not have a start of a sentence, like this example, "Always check the stand off posts, because" using this type of point traps you into a specific answer. Rather just have "Stand off posts" this only commits you to the topic and you are free to talk about a variety of material concerning - stand off posts. The adlib speech allows you to repeat important instructions or suggestions.
Keep up the good work.
Your videos get better and better Brian - Thanks! PS could you do a video on laptops that won't power up?
Yeah, I can do. Really need to be on a work bench for that. I see what I can do.
thanks
Thank you. Swapped the kettle power lead and worked again fine. Many thanks you are a star.

Well shoot..
I wont be able to smell smoke because it's already smokey because of wildfires..
Do you live in Australia?
Thank you so much after spending a crap load on my gaming computer and only getting to use it for maybe a year and a half it stop powering on. I did everything I could thank of to fix it. after a few months i was mad as hell and almost kick it out the door. I watch your video and come to find out it was the on and off switch. Thanks for the video.
Can u help me out i cant turn on my pc nothing wont start only light on internet cable is on
Oh Exzy same
Same
Did u guys figure it out, I am going through this now
Thanks! My brand new computer wouldn't turn on today, and this video helped me calm down and think straight. Turns out I unplugged the front panel when doing cable cleanup.
My computer is not even a year old, was working wonderfully then I heard something rattling...
My dad found it was a hanging cable from the fan, so he put that back snug.
But then my computer wouldn't turn on via the power switch. He told me he got it to turn on 'power switch by the bios' I think he said...
So we havr to turn it on inside the computer...
My computer has a constant glow (that's a good thing) that pulses when the switch in the back or surge protector strip is on...But the power switch won't turn the computer on..
I am very tight but I also am not going to replace the case.
So if there is something I can do to make sure if the power switch is permanently dead, without harming anything else...I'd appreciate the tip.
She is under warranty though, but the builder is not local. So if I can make sure what the issue is, I'll know what to tell them and go from there.
Thank you in advance...
Trying to learn..But don't want to screw it up either *nods*
Enigmatic Silhouette a
did you ever find out what was wrong?? the same exact thing happened to me
Hi Brian, there are a couple of things i don't think you mentioned, one is if the mains lead is suspect try it on you kettle see if the kettle works, and the other thing is you could remove the graphics card and see if it will work on the onboard video from motherboard.....if anyone is a bit more technical they could check the power supply and the cmos battery with a multimeter....Fred in Essex.
I have found that just disconnecting the 24, 8, and Molexes, then pin green & black, switch on and see if PSU runs. Then test 24 pin connector for correct voltages. That gets you half way thru this video in a couple of mins.
Spent hours trying to get my CPU switch on. It was dead, no lights, no sound, no fan spinning. After reading several comments here I decided to unplug the power supply cable that was connected to my GPU and my PC finally powered up..
Thanks man, because i never thought it would be a broken cable.
I looked up how to fix a computer that won’t turn on and this is the first video I see
So?
cheers for the vid, lots of good options to test. My Desktop died overnight, a couple of power losses in use and now it won't power up at all. Thinking PSU or CMOS most likely. Wondering about the power switch as well. * rolls up sleeves *
So today I was playing a game for about 30 minutes and then my computer just shut down completely. I held and pressed the power button many times. I unplugged my power cable many times and my monitor light is on and the internet cable light is also on. I open the case of my computer and plugged the power cable in only the mother board light is on. I don't know much about computer parts. There is no smell. I think it might be the switch but I don't know what the video was saying about the reset switch and how you can change it. Please help
i have the same problem too bruh
@@kanashiii707 I found out what problem mine was it was my switch. I had to click it really hard.
Me too plz help
Thanks, for me it was power button, switching with reset button worked. That solution would probably never cross my mind. Thanks again.
Interesting note about the blown caps. Back in 2007-2010 in my time as an IT engineer at the NHS, we had several Dell Optiplex's failing with blown caps. Calling Dell it turns out they were a batch built using knock off caps that came from a bent Russian factory. So Dell were having to replace the motherboards for free.
How true that back story was I never knew.
Steven Whiting this comment was a year ago but funny to say my optiplex is dead and it might be because of those caps
When we are about to buy power supply but tried your tips and our comp works again ahhh godbless you man
My computer won't turn on after a very hot day (107 degrees outside) mind you it was off the entire time. Any ideas?
My Computer won't turn on or charge. Because I was gone with my father for a very long time. And yesterday I try to charge it but the orange light won't come on and the blue light. I am gonna try to see if it can work again.
Mine also wont start and its a very hot day, but there were many hot days this summer already aswell as all summers sincen 2015 when i bought it
@@leno7492 does it charge or just don't want to come on
I’m wondering if it could be this? Because its a heatwave atm and now it wont start out of nowhere
Thanks a ton man. I just changed the power supply and still wouldn't power on so i was afraid for the worst but i watched your video and so I calmly checked all the cables again and I realized they weren't fully inserted as you mention. Haha you saved me the technician fee.
What about if You push the power button and all You get is a constant piiiiiiip sound and You have to pull the plug to shut it down again ??? Won't even get the BIOS bootup or anything just that constant piiiiip sound. Really loud too. Not from the speakers but from inside the case. It's an old PC with win XP and I don't really want to waste money fixing it but want to be able to boot it to save all the files and photos on it. I think I have most stuff saved on External HD but might have a bit more in there since it was years since I used it and backed it up on external HD. Just been standing for years. Not been on in ages and all I get now is that piiiiip sound when I tried it.
HolyOrderofDragons The beep sound is a hardware failure. Could be lucky and you just need to re seat the RAM / Graphics card. Go to the manufacturers website or google beep codes for "dell" for example. Make sure it is specific to your series of machine. However if that freebie doesn't work and you plan on canning the whole system with the need for Data recovery. Just go on eBay and buy an external HDD reader. Take the hard drive out and dock it to your current machine. The files should appear but make sure your system does not format the disk when you connect it to read the data. Hope that helps! Any further issues, ping back here and I'll try to help you.
Ok this saved me Right now. I don’t usually comment but this was super helpful. Thank you so much for helping other people you don’t even know just out of the kindness of your heart.
Today after my lunch i wanted to start my computer so first i turn on my monitor then i turn on my computer but its power button lit up for like 1 second then it turn of and my monitor to i kept try and once my computer started working but my monitor did not so i torn of my pc and turn it back again and from then it does not turn on and trying to fix this i got shocked 2 times! And i am only 13 so i was scared to open my computer and i did not know how 😥😩
My pc wouldn’t start and it was because my wire was broken when it arrived (I didn’t know that tho) after about a week of trying everything I swapped the restart with the power and it worked.
Thanks 🙏

I recently got a few computer part replacements, the ram, motherboard and ever since then my computer will randomly not turn on, i have a spare power cable so i switch them out and it works. Both power cables work so its only a temporary fix for until it messes up again. The power supply is 580w and i checked with pc part picker and it should be enough
My psu died and killed my gpu. Oh we have the same psu...lol
Thank you kind sure I had moved and it was turning on but thx to you I saw that one cable of the power supply wasn't in and I plugged it back in

hey thanks for this! just built a new pc, first time, was about to have an anxiety attack when i got no power on boot. but your simple suggestion of making sure the psu cables were in all the way was what fixed it. they really do need to be pushed hard.
Well I’m just selling my parts and buying a new one
Thanks man you saved me..turns out to be power button faliure ..I just turned it on using the pwr button in the motherboard
This one doesn't happen very often (watch for it on e-bay or garage sales finds) The "bricked" Bios, or old virus that would brick the Bios. Fans might turn on but nothing else.
Yeah, I have seen a bricked BIOS where the computer would not boot. Also, an Unsuccessful BIOS flash would also cause problems. The list goes on and on, thanks for sharing with others.
talk about how to fix bricked BIOS
Try and flash the BIOS again, if that's not possible you can replace the BIOS chip with a new one. That of cause would need rework station.

I just watch this video and knew that my cmos battery is the problem,and because of that you have earned a subscribe here
I want to do this but I don’t want to electrocute myself XD
You can't electrocute yourself, unless you do this while the pc is on and running.
I like this kind of videos (troubleshooting, computer builds, OS install and configuration)... Maybe one day you can make a live stream! (even if there is no audio, so you can keep the focus on the troubleshooting)
Yeah, I am sure I could do that.
When i am doing diagnostics on a computer (moving PC parts and the case) i usually take the hard drive out and put it in a place where it doesn't take all the bounces (of moving up, down and to the sides). I know it doesn't always apply, but it's a quick tip that can be useful i think
I forgot that i turned the switch off Lol im so dumb
Lol you so dumb that you are obviously begging for likes xd
Thank you. My issue was the power switch or so the case entirely. Had i not seen this i wouldve assumdd i needdd to replace the motherboard or power supply. A simple hot wire to the power switch worked. I aprpreciate your tips and help!
Thanks a lot m8. I have fixed my PC, there was a problem with the button on power ON, and i switch the reset with the Power ON, and worked !! tnxs again!
It _WAS_ the power cord. Lol, thank you, I'm crying right now. I just subscribed. God bless you, man. 😭
Uhh I can’t do all that stuff with the inside of my computer but is there any other way?
I was using it literally yesterday then turned it on sleep mode and now it won't turn on but the monitor says no signal and idk what to do
Thank you! Thought I had to replace some parts but it was just the power switch like you showed!
You saved my life. The old loose cable trick. Thankyou so much.
Ty for this. Got a machine working right in the middle of a project. Cheers
Thank you so much!!! apparently my one of my RAM card was defect, now my computer came back to live
I appreciate the tips by the way! This solved my issue within 5 minutes. Seems like a wire was loose from positioning. What type of built pc do you like most?
Thank You my problem was my power switch was Reconfigured
Thanks for the video dude I don’t know much about computers and I had my brother build me a custom pc, I had no idea the wires could just come loose over time and that was the issue causing my boot loops. Thanks again.
Great trouble shooting video! Thank you for the ideas. *now has reset button as power button.*
Thanks, sorted me right out. (loose power to motherboard)
You are a money saver sir...come to find out the CMOS battery (at 3:11) was dead. Popped in a new Energizer 2032 and it's working now!!! Thanks alot!!! You saved me some money, now I don't have to take it to Best Buy Geek Squad.
