PC won’t turn on? 7 checks before you panic | Olmsted Tech Rescue
- Verify the outlet and power strip with a known‑good device.
- Check the power switch on desktop PSUs (set to “|”).
- For laptops, remove the battery if possible and test on AC only.
- Unplug USB devices—bad peripherals can block boot.
- Listen for fans/beeps and note any patterns.
- Try a different power cable/adapter if available.
- If fans spin then stop, suspect PSU or motherboard.
