Optiplex 9020: PC will not start after easter holiday/ Summer time change (?)

Tue, 14 Apr 2026 07:04:34 -0700

Hi! After a prolonged easter holiday I came home and my good old 9020 would not start. It is power but I think the first error message had something to do with time issue. We went to summer time here in Norway while I was away. (One hour forward from regular time) I got someone to put in a new SSD Drive (C drive) when I bought the computer second hand several years ago and there is also a second operative system on another drive, win10 on both. But neither will start. Have seen online that maybe the CMOS battery could be an issue? I feel reluctant to try and go into the bios.... No experience..... If I try to start the computer, the repair program starts right away, but after a couple of rounds the power button turns yellow and it seems dead and I just have to “pull the plug” I am using the computer for many things including Cubase and music production and I am hoping of a solution... Anyone? Of course greatful for any help!!!

Optiplex 9020: dell OptiPlex 9020 sff Power button no response.

Sun, 04 Jan 2026 02:13:56 -0700

I tried turning on the PC but, it won't respond even if I test the power supply, nor will it turn on when unplugging and plugging back the power, the fans will run as usual. I tried to power it on by short-circuiting the power pins, but nothing happens then I tried to measure the power going to the pins but what I got is a flat 0 and 37.4mV but that is not supposed to be right? besides that, I don't know how to power it on besides the power button.
