Hi everyone,

After a power outage last night, my desktop computer won't turn on at all. I've checked the power cable and outlet, both seem fine. The power button doesn't respond and there are no lights or sounds.

Specs:
- Dell OptiPlex 7090
- Windows 11
- Connected to a surge protector

Any ideas what might be wrong? Could the power supply be fried?

This sounds like a power supply issue. Try unplugging the computer for 30 seconds, then plug it back in and try again. If that doesn't work, you might need to test with a different power supply or have it checked by a technician.

Thanks for the suggestion! I tried unplugging it but still no luck. I'll contact a local repair shop to test the power supply.
