not sure if this is the right forum to be asking this question but here
goes...if i have to restart my computer for some reason ..it will not do
so i have to turn the computer off with the switch at the back of the
computer and wait about five minutes to start it back up again..the restart button doesnt work either..the computer only hangs.. so i was wondering if there is something in the bios to check to see if that will
get fixed..running AMD 900 with windows xp pro...thanks

Welcome to the forums.

I have seen this happen a few times when the PSU is starting to crap out. Might be time to invest in a new one.

Hold the power button down for 4 seconds, see if that works.
