Fuse? On the motherboard? Are you referring to a capacitor? |

You're talking about the capacitor. Is it leaking or look like it has dried liquid around it? |

I am no sure but, when I replace the power supply first time it was a wrong one. It had less pins. and may have blown the capacitor, jut thought I would try replacing it. I am a almost blond so just creating ideas. It now has a new PSU LOGISYSIPS550ABK 550W RT. It powers up then nothing at boot. |

are you sure everything is plugged in correctly? did the hard drive maybe get unplugged from the motherboard when you replaced the psu? Does BIOS correctly identify the hard drive?
Are there any messages on the screen that may help us help you a little more? even if the message seems unimportant, please post anything it says. |

When I turn it on and do nothing it comes up to the boot screen and stays there without decting the keyboard. When I click exit or f1 it will say loading then stays there with the same results. |

Sounds like your motherboard is toast. Or could be your processor fried. I really seem to think your motherboard is the problem when you powered up with the wrong psu. Motherboards are pretty cheap. I'd replace it and if not the case, return it. Then I think it could be the chip. Could be your ram as well. Problem is when you powered up your pc with the wrong psu, it could be one thing or all. Just going to be a matter of deduction. |

Before you go junking it... Did you try to reset the cmos with the jumper?
This is from the hp link...
Clearing the BIOS settings CAUTION: Do not change any jumper setting while the computer is on. Damage to the motherboard can result. This motherboard has jumpers to: Clear the Real Time Clock (RTC) RAM in CMOS. In the default (normal) position the jumper is on pins 2-3.
EDIT: I see you did reset the bios... Hmmm... I wish I could see what exactly it is doing & where in the POST it is failing! |

HP Pavilion a1620n windows xp home. replaced power supply with PSU LOGISYS|PS550ABK 550W RT 4 memory slots 256 each nVidia GeForce 6150 XHD3000 Gateway 30" monitor HT Omega Claro digital surround (no amp yet) Altic Lansing desktop speakers WinFast TV2000xp hp photosmart 7200 printer APC Smart UPS 1500 Microsoft wirless 4000 keyboard/5000 mouse Linkys wireless G
What happened was I shut down the computer (yes the right way) restarted a few minutes later only the led light came on the front of the computer panel. replaced the power supply with AL-A300ATX 300W ATX12V 20pin, still only the led light. replaced power supply with new 550w, it powers up to the first blue boot screen with F1=setup, exit=boot, F10=restore... when clicking the F1 or exit prior to boot screen it will say Loading..... on the screen and sets doing nothing. F10 and F5 for reseting bios has no effect and will only do the same as not clicking any keys (only show boot screen)no dection of keyboard during this process. Hope this information helps. I have a new battery for it cr2032 lord it couldn't be so simple. but will try it today |

That's the whole issue. He's clearly having a hardware failure upon boot. He hooked up the wrong psu so chances are the moment he turned on his computer, the motherboard fried. |

disconnect any IDE/Hard Drives/CD-ROMS
machines are notorious for hanging exactly like you say, when its detecting IDE devices incorrectly |
|
|
The whole issue is when the wrong power supply was installed, this all started happening. I would be absolutely willing to bet that either the keyboard itself or the ram is toast. It absolutely does not sound like a software issue. It will not detect IDE devices if the BIOS is not even loading. |

The keyboard is PSI from another computer(works) When I click the F1 or Exit prior to boot screen it must reconize it by stating Loading..... at boot screen then that is sticks right there. |
|
|
Exactly. The moment the BIOS enters init state, it dies. It's starting to load the op files in the BIOS but is failing. |

Fried Mother Board.. I find one for around $89 bucks.. would it be worth replacing with what I run on it. Watch TV, Read BBR, Voice Chat, Web Cam. I am in love with my computer it has been a very good computer and held up to everything I put it though until I goofed with a wrong power supply. |

Can't hurt to try it. They're pretty cheap and if it's not, return it. |
