Hi Petrina,

I am only guessing, but it sounds like you may have lost a BIOS setting, and
it may not be recognising your hard drive on first boot.  When this happens
again, try pressing F1, and see if it springs to life.

All the best

Hi all,

I have found over the last cuppal of days, that when I press the start
button, to boot up the computer, nothing happens, and I have to press the
reset button about three or four times, before the hard drive will come to
life. So is this my hard drive packing up, or the buttons on the tower?. My
tower and hard drive are four years old. Thanks for any help.

All the best
Petrina,
