I went into control panel like you said, but the advanced tab in power controls does not say anything about blinking power light.

It is not a wiring issue, as the wiring has not changed. Just the power went out, and now the light blinks.

I might also mention, about a month ago, the power supply fried in this pc. I went to the goodwill computer store and bought a used one. Now I see, it is the new ps!! I just didn't notice the change when I set it up, but realized it later.

Thanks to all,
