Ok, typing this from my laptop so I can get some answers.

My tower is a Gateway that I purchased 4 years ago, I reformatted yesterday and I just installed incredimail around 10:30AM this morning. Then I went to school, when I got home it appears to have been stuck in sleep mode.

The power turns on, but I get no display, I checked the monitor and it's fine. Cause I'm testing it on my laptop and it's fine, I see there's 2 colors by the power button, a red one, and one with the light symbol which is stuck in a faint yellow.

It was working fine for 4 years and suddenly this, the monitor displays "No input signal" which is a StarLogic Monitor. I did not set the power settings as I just reformatted and went back to bed last night, so it could possibly be stuck in sleep mode even after powering on or off.

Thanks!

Erm, just restart it then change the settings so it does not do it in the future.

um, it won't boot up or anything, I hear all the fans and hear that the powers on but I get no video "no input signal"
I looked inside through the fans I saw a red light and a bunch of green lights, any suggestions?

That is nothing to do with sleep mode.

Sounds like a faulty PSU in my opinion.

Yea, I agree about the PSU, it will most likely be the cause. Did you leave the computer on whilst you went to school, or did you shut it down?

I left it on... but I dunno, I just removed the power cord and reconnected it and it works... Dunno why it worked though.

I thought you meant you had tried that when you said you tried turning it off then on again. But no matter, atleast it works now, but I've had that problem with a previous PC too, for some reason something in my PC didn't like going into sleep mode and would wake up out of it unless I unplugged it.
