Acer Veriton L4618g will not start, I only get the fan to cycle for a second
Hello, I have an Acer desktop (Veriton L4618g) and it will not start. The fan will cycle for a second when you push the power button and then does nothing more.
I tried a different power supply/cord from a different (same exact) computer but it did not work.
Any ideas how to trouble shoot this unit?
I ended up switching hard drives with another computer so the user could get up and running but wanted to make sure I get this other unit running too.

Removed everythings, took battery out, pressed power button for 1 min. Plugged in and tried to get something to start, no response from system at all.
This system has the power supply on the power cord. I have tried different power cords that work on other machines.
It appears the motherboard is dead.
