Our computer generally stays on all of the time but because the electric went out for a few minutes then the systems cut off. This morning when I tried to reboot then the power did not come on. Unplugged electrical outlet and finally on my power strip I changed the outlet and the system came on. However, my friend has tried the same concepts and no power. Can anyone help us out? Is there something I'm not trying?
