Okay here is the story:
I was working on my Dell computer installing a new WD 80Gb hard drive. After a lot of hassling I was unable to get my master/slave settings how I wanted them because of Dells stupid setup. So I just put the two Optical Drives on one channel and the hard drives on the other. So I went to reconnect their Molex connectors and I unplugged the main connector from the motherboard to do this, so I could have more room. So when I plugged the main connector back in the computer started up and I realized I had forgotten to unplug it from the wall. So I held down the power switch to reset it so I could finish some other connections. Now the computer refuses to start up, the power button just blinks orange whenever I push it. What do y'all think is the problem?
Here is my setup:
1.9 GHz P4
Dell Mobo/ Power supply
Dvd Drive
CDRW
WD 80 Gb
Seagate Barracuda ATA IV 40Gb
Sound Blaster Live
Geforce 2 Ultra
512 MB 800 Rdram
