I know I'm in the wrong group but this is near my last resort. . . . .I just received a used Dell Optiplex GX280 Desktop and the thing won't power up. It appears the power switch is bad and it doesn't return when depressed and there is no 'click'. After many wasted attemtps with email, and chat with Dell, a chat agent told me they don't have that switch anymore. I know if I sent the machine into Dell they would replace the switch. . . .Does anyone here know where I can locate new/used Dell parts? Or even how the damn switch works. There are no wire or contacts visible behind the button.. . . . .in advance. . to 1 & all, thanks. . . chas
