I attempted to remove and re-insert the cable between the power button and the motherboard, wich seemed to solve the problem We are a little unsure about the second computer. The issue with that is that it would power on but we would not be able to see an image on the music room monitor and it would not turn off if we held in the power button. At first we did try to ta...
