Pavillion Elite win7 m9715f
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

Hi

I have an Pavillion  Elite desktop # m9715f. It was upgraded to win 7 from vista. It's several yrs old.

The problem is erratic. Sometimes it will turn the 1st time I press the power button, other times I must 

depress the button 2 to several times before it will boot up. The green lite in the back is on so, there is power.

It is plugged into a power strip along with a 2nd desktop that works fine without any bootup issues.

After looking thru the support topics I think the issue is a malfunctioning power buttom. 

Do you have any instuctions/pics for replacing the button for my pc ?

thx in advance
