Exclamation [Resolved] Help - My PC wont switch on
Hi everyone!

My computer won't switch on - I press the on button and nothing happens.

I presumed it was the power supply, as the power supply was making a high-pitched whine when it was plugged in. So, I've now tried 3 PSU's and it still won't turn on. I've also bought and fitted a new motherboard, and it still wont switch on. I've tried 3 different switches, and have had no joy with them either.

The motherboard shows a green light when the PSU is plugged in, so it's getting power.

I'm totally out of ideas - can anyone suggest something else to try?

Thanks in advance,

John
