Desktop will not turn on but the power light turns on, Problem?

by amandahinkle . Updated 13 years, 2 months ago

Right so last night I leave the computer running and turn the monitor off liek ususal, I close all problems but Trillian and Steam As usual. I go to bed about 9:30 pm

I wake up around midnight and turn my monitor on, thinking I had maybe heard a beep or something to wake me up, I turn ont he monitor and nothing happens. the afterglow controller I keep plugged iinto the comptuer was off and I heard no fans running. So I shut it off, but it won’t turn back one when I pusht he power button, even though the power button light comes on. The comptuer is plugged into a power strip that keeps a Fan, TV, Desktop lamp (all three worked by the way, even the monitor)

The case is gateway, I beleive the motherboard is as well, the power supply is about 2 months old, It has 6 GBs of Ram on three 2GB sticks, and a Wifi card from D link.

this computer has never shown any signs of malfunction save for the Microphone and headphone jacks in the back mostly due to them gettign jerked by mistake.

Anyone help me?
