    Dell Inspiron 3847 Windows 10 Won't Turn On.


    Hi, I have a Dell Inspiron 3847 that is about 4-5 years old. About a month ago it began having issues powering on and off, it would hang up when I tried to power it down. About 5 days ago I shut it down and since then It will not turn back on. I am able to push the button on the back of the power supply and the light shows green, all the fans run, the disc drive works, and my keyboard and mouse light up. My motherboard is the standard that came with it and doesn't have any indicator lights on it. I have tried to boot it from shorting the pins on the motherboard that are used with the power button and that also does not work. Am I looking at a dead motherboard? Everything in the PC is what came with it I haven't added or replaced any components. If you need any more info or more specs please let me know. Thanks!

    Here are the PC Specs:

    OS: Windows 10

    CPU: Intel Duo Core i3 (4th Gen)

    Memory: 8 GB DDR3 Ram

    Video: Integrated Intel HD Graphics 4400

    Power Ratings Input voltage • 100 VAC-127 VAC • 200 VAC-240 VAC Input frequency 50 Hz–60 Hz Input current (maximum) 9.0 A/4.5 A

    1TB HDD

    :)

    Windows 10 Home on Dell Inspiron 3847 will not update to 1709


    I have two identical boxes with same issue- Windows 10 Home will not update to 1709. Here are the hardware specs & steps taken to fix the problem:

    Dell Inspiron 3847
    Windows 10 Home ver 1607 OS Build 14393.1944
    Intel Core i5-4460 3.2G
    12GB RAM
    Integrated Intel HD Graphics 4600
    1TB SATA HDD

    It downloads and attempts to install the latest updates then several hours later reverts back to where it was.
    So far:
    - installed & ran Windows Update Troubleshooter & taken the steps that it suggests
    - renamed Windows 10 upgrade folder and downloaded the latest updates
    - deleted the software distribution folder & downloaded/installed again
    - ran windows cleanup and deleted all those files
    - tried stopping & disabling the windows update service to prevent it from continuing
    There is licensed software so a clean install is out of the question.

    These PC's are installed in a restaurant and when this happens the whole place shuts down during lunch & dinner. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
