Hello and welcome to the group Just a quick question or two and a couple of pointers on what to check. You say the fan comes on so you know it has power. Do you see any other lights on including keyboard lights? If you see no other lights and no signs of life other than the power fan,it seems to me as if you have AC power only and you don’t have any DC power. Which means the power supply is not functioning properly, probably a blown fuse. With the storms we’ve been having lately I wouldn’t be surprised. Because of its age, the power supply needs to be tested completely and to be made sure that it has parts that are 100% reliable. This, I am sure, can be done at any of the up upcoming repair workshops at InfoAge wall Township nj. While we do not have all of the parts to fix everything, we can certainly help you test it out and see if the power supply is working properly. Other things can be tested as well if the power supply works, sometimes a deep dive can be done, depending on how much time there is. If you’re handy with a multimeter, You can do a quick test checking for 12 V and 5 v @ the connectors for the floppy drive or hard drive or even the motherboard. I personally have not been to attend any of the workshops recently and this weekend has a big swap meet up in North Jersey, so I will not be there at a workshop on Sunday for sure. So I figured this might get you started ! Mike Rosen Sent from: My extremely complicated, hand held electronic device.
