My Computer will not boot up. The hard drive light comes on the goes off. The DVD Drive seems to work and the fans are working. I tried another Hard Drive and it did the same thing.

@Joe1965, welcome to the forum.

When requesting help you should always include the make/model (i.e. p6-xxxx) of the computer and/or monitor. This information is necessary for us to review the specifications of them.

Hi Joe,

I think you should hold the power button long for atleast 10-15 seconds and check whether it will start booting up or not.

There might be an issue of Power Supply or the Motherboard.

If the issue is not the same, then I think you should go through https://askleo.com/my_computer_lights_up_and_turns_on_but_nothing_happens_why/. I hope that this will definitely help you.

Good Luck!!!
