Power

My system is turned on but nothing is getting power
If your computer is plugged into a surge protector, make sure that the surge
protector is securely connected to an electrical outlet, switched on, and
working correctly.
Make sure that the electrical outlet is working by plugging a working
device, such as a lamp, into the outlet, then turning it on to test the outlet.
Make sure that all devices are connected securely to the surge protector
and correctly switched on.
