I left this afternoon to play with my kids, and when I got back the PC was dead. Its a Dell e510 with media center XP on it, and it was running when I left. I can't get the boot process to even begin. When I power up, the power light comes on...the DVD and DVDRW drive lights come on and flicker for a short bit...and thats it. No starting of the HD, no messages on the monitor (which I tested with a laptop and the monitor is good), no anything else. Any ideas? Possible hard drive failure is my guess...but I'd welcome any other educated guesses or things to try with open arms! I can't find anything on the forum where the boot process doesnt even start up. Oh, no beeps when I turn it on, which (at least way back when) used to be how you knew if the motherboard was bad... -Greg
