Hello to whoever is reading this. I had this pc which is a XC-603, yesterday it worked fine with no problems, but today, as soon as i try to turn it on, it doesn't give a signal, also noticed that instead of having to do a long press to turn it off, it instantly turn off with just a small click.

Can someone help me?

Thanks.

    Take the RTC/BIOS battery out and replace the battery with a new one, as this desktop is about 11 years old and a new battery is due, also clear the CMOS and follow the guide below, good luck.

    To clear the CMOS data:
    1. Turn off the power to the computer and all peripherals.
    2. Unplug the power cord from the computer.
    3. Unplug the network cable and all connected peripheral devices from the computer.
    4. Place the computer on a flat, steady surface.
    5. Remove the side panel.
    6. If necessary, remove any expansion cards, assemblies or cables that prevent access to the CMOS clear
    jumper.
    7. Locate the CMOS1 jumper on the mainboard

    8. Remove the jumper block and set it over the 2-3 pins for 20 to 30 seconds.
    9. Return the jumper block to its default 1-2 position.
    10. Reinstall any expansion card, peripheral, and system cables that have previously been removed.
    11. Reinstall the side panel.
    12. Connect the AC power cord to the system.
    13. Press the power button to turn on the computer.
    14. During POST, press Delete to access the Setup Utility.
    15. Press F9 to load the system default values.
    16. Press F10 to save the changes you made and close the Setup Utility
