I have recently acquired a Dell Optiplex GX270 from a thrift shop, and it worked nicely the first couple of times I booted it, but soon it started failing to boot, as in when I push the power button, I get an orange light as opposed to a green one, and no signal is transferred to the screen; the fan seems to start up, going at max first, then slowing slowing down. If I hold the button down to force shut down and restart a couple of times, everything boots and works nicely. Also, if I've recently turned off the Dell, I can turn i back on without hassle. What would be the problem here? I'm very worried because this is a nice computer and I'm afraid soon it will not boot at all. Just in case, would the HDD from an Optiplex GX270 work on a Dimension B110?
