It's a two year old pc with EP-9NDA3J motherboard.

I was using the pc while someone else pressed a switch on another computer. It immediately shut down my pc :D

The pc can not be booted up again. Nothing happens when I turn the switch. No lights, no fans, nothing. I checked the power supply, it runs well if I short the green/black wire. So, as for as i can think of, it's either the problem of motherboard or the powerswitch connecting to the case and the motherboard.

Is there any way to tell if the motherboard is damaged? How to simulate the switch? by briefly shorting that two metal tips (PowerSW)?

Thanks

Jacky

Use a screwdriver to start the computer. Just hold it on the jumpers, and wait for 30 seconds. If it boots, it isnt dead. If it doenst, well... O ya...WELCOME TO THE FORUMS:gift:
