Anyway, to reiterate: Nothing happens when I push the power-on
button on the front. When I switch the power switch in the back of the
machine, that's when I see the quick flash and can see the CPU fan
make a revolution or two before everything stops again. One of the
front-panel LEDs flashes once too, then it's out.
Sounds like power supply. I had similar symptoms with a new system - no
beeps, no video at all, but the fan and LEDs came on. When the cheap
no-name Chinese power supply was replaced with an Antec it worked.
It's an Antec PS too, a 450W unit.
I've put everything away until I can get the system to a repair shop and
get it tested.
Best,
