At school, the COMPUTER was on and I flicked the red switch at the BACK (by the power supply) and the PC blew and now the teacher ses I have to pay for a new one, ut my mate said he did he same thing at home and it was only the lower pack that blew, and he only had to pay £30 for a new one, does anyone now if this is fixable, it was a dell OPTIPLEX 320 I think (if that Helps).The only way we'll be able to tell you is if you have access and permission to open up the computer, and basically have unlimited access to the computer which I doubt a school will give you. Depending on the damage you might not have to buy a new computer. Quote from: casdo on May 03, 2007, 04:09:09 PM
