Hey guys...need some help on an old system
My buddy just got a PC from his sister...CANT UPGRADE , NOT POSSIBLE...need to know if this is fixable or not..
problem:
When i push the on button the fans spin for less then 4 sec and shutdown...no beeping ...no screen flash...NOTHING happens...
what i did:
Took PSU out of system...jumped the PSU(touched the green wire to the black wire) and THEN it works fine used the HDD and CD ROM to test it... then i took ever part out of PC, including the battery and RESET the CMOS..and hooked just the PSU,HARD-DRIVE,CD,MONITOR all together and the fans run and PC seems to be on..
BUT
When i connect the rest of the PSU to the mother board...BLACK/YELLOW cords(four pin,possible ground???)...the system shutdowns down and does what the ORIGINAL problem was.
so is this mean
PSU bad??
or the motherboard bad???
or em i doing something wrong?
thanks guys..

Compaq Presario SR1210NX
330 Intel Celeron D Processor 2.66ghz
256MB DDR SDRAM(yes i know need upgrade)
