Hey guys, hopefully dumb question: is there a reason a power button stops working? I came back to my pc being asleep which makes sense but the power button didn't wake it up. Holding it didn't shut it down either, I had to switch off the psu. Now it won't turn on, ive tried reseating the power button cable but that didn't work. Any ideas or is something dead?

#

I also tried a different power button but no luck so im getting concerned

It doesn't fail to start either, it just doesn't power at all, no diagnostic lights on mobo

Hmm have u googled the specfic model number for the psu?

#

Also have u tried shorting the pins on the board?

#

Or clearing the cmos

I tried shorting the pins and even an extra power button but nothing

I took the bios battery out and put it back but no luck, do I need a new batt?
