Thank you. I built computers 25 years ago and run a tech business but in the last decade or so we don't do much PC repair work. I didn't even consider the power BUTTON could be the problem. Found an old jumper to short the pins on the board I have (which isn't this one but it doesn't matter) - and WALA it booted up. Now to decide if it's even worth buying a replacement power button for this silly XPS that's 6 years old......oh, and all you people putting the guy down for a 4-minute video, get bent. He's helping people out, why hate?

My case has been through a couple of moves, UPS put a dent in it on a trip from IL to AZ and my power switch has been the first thing to go on it. I hate having to get in there just to do this, hoping everything will fit into a Dell i got from my sister in law. It took over 5 years, but mashing the button like a caveman isn't working anymore lol Edit: gave her one last shot after pulling her out from underneath my desk, guess she decided to stop being stubborn. First button push xD

This is good to know but unfortunately mine still cuts right back off. All the PS voltages check out except -12 is like -14.5. I doubt that's causing the issue though. Mine won't stay on long enough to even get in the bios.

Thank you, I have been looking for a video like this for a while, searching for "on off switch" did not work... I have an 2003 Power Mac G4 MDD, for a long time I was sure it's problem is the Power Supply. Now I have an idea on how to test it, I did see a video where they had to remove/replace a circuit board so maybe this won't work. Maybe there is a fuse on the board...thinking out loud.
