Re: Can my comp handle win vista/7/8

There was heaps of space left and 1.2gb of ram.
Update - Got my discs out using a paperclip.
It has also turned on once since, I havent been able to see what was on the screen as the moniter wasnt connected at the time. Anybody have ideas on how to get it on?

Green light? Which of the at least 10 green lights are you referring to?

The one at the front, You know how heres a red light there that sometimes flashes and next to it is a green light which is mostly on? The green light went off and the red just went into a solid light, (No blinking, just solid)

Do you hear any beeps when starting it?

Re: Can my comp handle win vista/7/8

No, But you can still hear the power button working. (Clicking when pressed down)

Well before even bios boot the computer does a check..and beeps accourding to what it finds...it's called POST (Power on self test.).

Here's some info on it:

Being yours isn't beeping at all I'm guessing a power issue.

No it isnt a power, This is a good thing.
I always thought this was a bad thing, But whenever i went to goto bed my mouse disturbed me because it was still on even though the computer was off, (Power point turned on) Same thing with my iphone charging on it.
Also, The computer's red light turns on for a second then it goes off.

Oh, And ive tried the mouse on another computer off, With the power point on and it doesnt light up. I reckon it isnt a power issue

Update -
My Half-Sister's Dad told me to unplug it fully for ten minutes, Then to replug it back in.
I did so, Then when i turned it back on the fan started up.. With the red light
The green light wont start at all, And nothing is being displayed on my screen.
