Hi my Dell computer won't start. It say monitor is in power save mode. Must activity using PC .Can same one please tell me what to do. I tried changing the pluck,tyke it out and put it back in.
Model would be very useful here?
It's not turning on because there's some problem with it and there's no magic solution. After posting back the model and maybe other relevant info, tell us if you made any changes or if anything happened to it between the last time it worked OK and the first time it didn't? Oh and what's a 'pluck' and 'tyke'?

My guess is that 'pluck' is 'plug' and 'tyke' is 'take'.

Ah yes, that's probably it. Where's spellcheck when you need it?
Wots a spel czeck?
I suspect that 'pluck' and 'tyke' were the result of careless use
of a spelling checker, since both are correctly-spelled words.
The grammar in the OP is jumbled, but the words are spilled
gust find.

A spell Czeck is a Czechoslovakian Magician,Pluck and Tyke are his assistants.
I'm guessing this is a Dell Optiplex 170. When you press the power button, do any lights show on the computer? Do you hear the fans start up? Doing the best I can here... And remember, there's always more than one path to success. :)
