...but there are lights inside? I went away from my computer for a few hours and when I come back it is off. This is the usual case (well, it's in sleep mode, looks off). So I go to turn it back on, and nothing happens. This has never happened before to my computer which I built In December 07.

I un plug and re plug everything in (external plug ins), and try it again. On my motherboard there is a red led light and a green led display that usually says FF (thought maybe it doesn't say that when it's off, I dont recall). Now it reads 1.0, when you turn push the power button, then it climbs to 2.0. So there is power going to it.

Recently I tried overclocking. I followed a complete idiot's guide of sorts I found on the web, and put my cpu speed up from 2.4 to 2.6. This was good. I went to 2.8, and I got system instability. I went back down to 2.4 and left my computer at default factory settings. I was checking temperatures and nothing ever got close to dangerous (12 degrees plus away from the "reccommend max" was the top I hit).

That was about two-three weeks ago, and since then I've had no problems, even played some intensive games with great performance. Then today, out of nowhere this lifelessness happens.

Could it be a bios problem? I don't know what to do if it is, and if it isn't...I still don't know what to do :P
