My PC won't boot after I shut it down recently.
I think it's because I set the power on function in the BIOS to be a password. Well, I typed in the password and it wouldn't boot. I think it's because I have a USB keyboard instead of a PS2 keyboard. This would be fine, but it wouldn't boot with a press of the button either. I didn't know that the two functions were mutually exclusive, but I guess they are.
The bigger problem is that I can't seem to reset the BIOS. I changed the jumper to the reset position, but still no boot.
I don't think it's a PSU problem for several reasons: 1. my mobo LED lights up, telling me it's getting power 2. I booted it up before, and my computer even restarted before when prompted by programs like driver installations, but when I shut it down and tried to boot it up myself, it was a no go.
To try to remedy the situation, I unplugged my PSU. I think I'm going to let it sit for a while and see what happens. Still, I would like a conclusive answer to my problem.
Any help is appreciated.
