Homework Help: computers

When you press the power button on your computer, it doesn’t turn on. There is nothing…silence…absolute zero. There are no beeps, no whistles, nothing. The monitor is getting power and the power strip is turned on.

1.Draw a diagram of the wiring scheme based on the information provided above. Assume that there is only one power strip and that the electrical service in the house is on.

2.What’s the problem?

3.How do you plan to rectify the problem? How much is this going to cost? How long is it going to take? How do you know this information?

Try to think of where the electrical voltage goes when the computer is connected to the outlet. Check for possible problems along the way and make a list.
