No System Powerup

Inwin 500 case w/PowerMan 300w
Intel 845PEBT2 w/2.8 P4

System has been running fine for a year and will not power up now. Is the power supply dead? Small green LED on the motherboard lights up but no system powerup. Also, normally I would see small light come up when I plug in LAN cable to onboard LAN port -- however, that light is not present now -- only the little green LED on the motherboard.

Should I get a new PS, or could it be something else that I'm missing here?

Thanks.

It sounds like the powersupply to me. Before you run out and borrow/buy a powersupply. Try reseeding the cpu/heatsink, RAM, and double check all the connections from the motherboard to the powersupply.

Thanks. Problem solved with a new Power Supply.

The lit green LED on the mobo was what threw me. I figured the board was getting power and maybe it was but not enough to boot the system.

All is well now anyway with a new PS.
