I have been working on my old computerrecently by upgrading the memory. WEll, not that I put it in, the computer won't turn off! It's like the power off/on button gave out. Anyone have any ideas?

You can probably just do what we call, "Riding the Bull" that is holding the power button down for roughly 8 seconds. That should cut the pc off.

Alright - I put the original memory in, and it booted up, and the power button works. Phew!

Pull the power cord out from the back of the powersupply.
