If the computer is switched on ,the computer wont booth up, unless i applie some hot hair to switch for few seconds and it booths up fine and stay on as long as i want to and if i ask it reboot it it reeboots ok , but if i switch off and the switch back on it wont come on unless i apply heat from hairdryer
could somebody shed any light on it
I would absolutly love to know how you troubleshot that problem. In the 20 or so years I’ve been working on computers I have never thought to use a blow dryer on the switch.
The switch is just a momentary contact. Open up the case, follow the wires from the switch back to the connector on the motherboard. Remove the connector, then using a small screwdriver or other metal object, short the two pins together. If it turns on the computer, your switch is bad and will have to be replaced.
Sounds like a bad switch or a bad soldered contact to it. Applying heat expands things slightly so that it makes contact. I’d replace the switch.
