I have been having issues getting the computer to come out of sleep mode in the past month or so. It started up fine a few hours later after shutting itself off. Instead of actually sending the computer into sleep mode the computer powered down. One issue I did notice a few days ago was while going to turn off the computer I accidentally clicked on "sleep" instead of "shut down". Everything was working properly the day/night before. The green light on the back near the power cord came on (steady green light) but it still will not power on using the front power button. I unplugged the machine, reset the surge outlet and plugged the cord back into the computer. I looked at the back of the computer to make sure it was properly plugged in and there was no power light on in the back. I went to turn on the computer by pressing the power button on the front and nothing happened. I've got a little problem today with my Inspiron 530 desktop.
