Hi, got a problem with my PC.
I turned the computer on but the monitor was recieving no signal (the screen was blank and its LED was yellow not green). I presumed it was a loose connection and checked all the cables but they are all firmly connected. I noticed that the light on the power button was flashing and that the harddisk indicator was permanently lit. After a five minute wait with no change i used the reset button, again the monitor recieved no signal but this time the light on the power button remained on but did not flash. I also noticed that the keyboard lights such as the capslock indicator were not coming on when i pressed the relevant button. It seems like the computer is stuck in a sleep mode or something.
The last time the machine was used before this incident it was connected to the internet for the first time in approximately six months, my virus software had not been updated nor has the operating system. Is it possible something could have been downloaded that has caused this problem?
cheers
