Power Supply is not working as I tried the fan check (Black & Green) jumper connection. followed the suggestions i had found in the forum. I check the mother board and it seems to be ok. OPTI Plex 790 (Service Tag 6WNSVQ1/ Express Service Tag : 15035590297) So I google it and saw several forums until I reached this one.

Secondly have you ever tried to get through your tech support? Why am I asked if I am an IT professional if the tech in the chat or on the phone is just going to insist on performing ALL of the diagnostics that I've already done, wasting my time and his or her time? If I tell them that this is the third batch of machines that have had the exact same problem, they should be able to reference prior calls and generate a work order in less than 10 minutes. We(the IT community) should not be pointing out to you what has obviously become a glaring failure. It has been STRONGLY suggested that we look for another manufacturer. At this point Dell no longer has ANY credibility with the CEO, the CIO, any of the executives or finance. when we have multiple scenarios of a "brand new machine" failing on a user's desk, possibly at a crucial time, I lose any argument to continue using Dell products. It's all well and good to pass this information on and to ask if tech support has been called, but that is not the issue, and if Dell thinks that it is, then they are missing the boat completely. Three were DOA out of the box, the rest failed after being placed on user's desks. This is common - we have had a 50% failure rate (13 out of 25) - unacceptable. they use all Dells so if we switched we'd be stuck starting from scratch.Īnyhow, I really hope Dell starts to step up the game same as even with the next day repairs it can still ruin the work of a staffer for a day or two. We're stuck because we're an IT department within a large University (our department handles the PC's for all library staff and student use over 29 campus locations) and we take a base IBM Tivoli Systems Manager image put out by the classroom and lab's IT group and tweak it to push out. HP? HA! The only option really would be Lenovo/IBM). We've discussed going with a different brand/model but with the setup we have it isn't practical right now (plus who would we switch to. I guess all in all the failure rate of these systems are higher than I'd care or expect to see. I currently have a ticket in with a machine giving the 1 and 3 Diag LED lights that won't boot. We have hit a few with PSU issues right out of the box or shortly after, but I'd have to say a larger percent of motherboard issues. The other 122 are still in boxes being currently deployed. We have 822 790's with about 700 of those deployed (roughly).
