Wow, it has worked on my optiplex 755!!! Thank you. I didn’t cut that wire but firstly simply shorted it to chassis ground with multimeter directly on plug, on current measurement set on. Then I soldered a pin with wire and placed in that plug and fastened it. Overall after releasing this connection, it still works and power button allows to shutdown normally. My led was blinking endlessly super fast by the way. No any numbers lit, psu from different model 305 or so in its name. I’ve instructed my son how to use it after this mod 😊

Drain the capacitors by unplugging the power cord and hold in the power button for 15 seconds. You also may have to remove the battery

As a follow up when shutting down Windows you will have to reset the power by unplugging it and plugging it back in. This particular customer only needs the unit to stay on.

You're a life saver. It worked. I tried with the highest doubt that it would work but I got the beep beep and the yellow lights. After oppening it, I could see that the CPU lost power while it was logged off (not compeletely shutdown). The dell optiplex 755 I have is for an office use and it stays powered on for most of the day. And due to a power issues in my area, this problem has been happening a lot. Usually the computer technicians rellace the whole damned power unit for 50% of the CPU price. Now I won't have to pay that much. And after turning the computer off the fan keeps running, so does that mean no greater harm? It is pretty loud and it only stops when I disconnect the new wires. Does this have an ultimate fix without the switches? Am pretty happy it works now but is there an alternate way for the long run? Thank you!

SFF 755, all the caps on PSU and board looked fine. Rest bio and the other blue pswr pin thing, but no go. Cut the green wire right in the middle so enough length to rejoin if needed. Earthed the PSU side on the chassis and it worked after six or so quick taps. Very slight puff of smoke from the front cpu fan area, so pulled off. Machine was going in the bin if this fix didn't work, so tried again, and it was now starting and stopping fine. Joined the green wire back together as stock, AND IT KEPT WORKING as normal from the front button. Something corrected itself which goes to show it's not always bad caps. I tried bios rests, memory sticks in and out...you name it. Just in case this happened again, I un-joined the green wire, and ran a short length of light speaker wire out through the rear air vent hole with a blue male spade and female connectors on the ends. The inside the two ends get soldered onto each green. **Put the exposed male terminal on the PSU side green wire** Male and female spade are left connect. Normal operation from the front button so far. If thing play up, I'll pull the male spade terminal out and short the male on the chassis again. Thank for the tips! Any-time you need your cock sucked, give me a call.

Bryan Mena I would assume a communication issue between the PSU and the Motherboard. When capacitors get old they change in tolerance so I maybe a faulty capacitor somewhere either on the motherboard or PSU
