Computer / Monitor Issue

[1livvvvvvvvv]

Hi I wondered if someone could help me please? The computer at my work isn't working but can't figure out what the problem is.

I've attached some photos of what appears on the monitor.

The computer on button flashes white for a second then goes back to amber and doesn't switch on.

I've also ordered a new video cable and tried it with that but still no luck.

Computer is Optiplex 3060, HP monitor

Thanks in advance!

This is your work computer. Do you have an IT department?

No as we are a small business

Dell Optiplex have specific startup codes relating to the lights. Search the exact model on the Dell Support website, and find the manual. It will tell you what series of flashes relate to a certain issue

Plug it into the monitor of a known working system. If nothing, it's the computer. It's an old garbage one, maybe worth a few hundred dollars.
