Hello
We have a 1999 Hewitt Packard Pavilion #4533 with Win 98se all hook into
a good surge protector thats about 8yrs old. For quite some time when we
shut the computer completely down and someone decided to go back on it
within 20 mins. when we turned it on all the power lights would light, but
the screen was blank. If we waited for 30 mins or longer we didn't have
this problem. NOW!!! it's doing it all the time, but we discovered by
accident
that if we turn both the surge protector and the CPU power button on at
the same time everything starts up fine.
Does anyone know what's going on???
Is this going to be expensive to fix???
Is this a simple repair??? (I hope)
Thanks, Sue
