I got a dell inspiron i580 desktop from a friend. It worked when he last used it, but was in his pickup for a month or two and probably suffered some vibration and cold damage. It uses an ssd so it is probably not that, however it is not mounted so its loose in the computer with semi stiff cables attached to it. I got it setup and Turned it on. The white light for the power button came on and so did the green light for the power supply. I unplugged and such multiple times but nothing came to the screen. I didn't do the best test but I plugged something with a light into each usb port but it never lit. Pressing the disk eject also didn't do anything. I checked the inside and found that all of the boards were hot even though all of the fans worked and it was only plugged in an on for a few min. Could this maybe be a power problem like too much of it? I put this cooling because everything being hot was the only problem i found. I have yet to do a deeper search.
