- Optiplex 7010 booting solved.
Procedure:
1) Shut down Desktop, Remove RAM & power it on.
2) If 6 beeps as in the video, put only 1 RAM back & restart the Desktop
3) press F2 and check date & time, If the date & time are wrong. Change the battery!
4) If multiple RAMS, put all back when PC is off.
Hope solved the issue.

Put the RAM in the same colour coding either white-white or black-black slots for dual channel, otherwise it will run in slower single channel mode

Glad to hear that Brother 😃

Thanks! You saved me. I had my personal computer in a frozen barn for the winter for 6 month. I thought something broke but your tutorial fixed it!

This worked great. Replaced my CMOS battery in a Dell Inspiron 5676 since it was 4 years in service and the flashing amber light appeared on the power button. This simple process fixed the issue. Thanks!

You helped me fix my computer, and I got to impress my wife with my repair-skills. Thanks a lot!
Impressive!

What if no beeps
Thanks a million. This tutorial helped to discover that one of my chips simply came loose and needed to be pushed back in. Cant even imagine how much cash you saved me to have a tech simply push a loose RAM chip back into place. Thanks again.

Thank you! Had moved and had not tried to set it up or even plug it in for four months. Tried today and I so scared something had been broken in the move. Up and running now. HUGE thanks

oh my god,i was so worried because i couldn’t do anything,this saved me for now but i will definitely get a new pc
Glad it was Helpful 😃
The likehood of this occuring again is very low, so your current desktop should suffice. If at it occurs, you now know how to resolve it.
For me it occurred after almost 9 Y of use, dint occur again for the last 2 Y. It has been very realiable.
Just wanted to give you a huge shout out and thank you so much for saving my PC without you I probably would’ve failed my classes as I needed to do my work online but I haven’t touched my computer in months.

Mine has steady orange blinking light after replacing PSU and CMOS batt. Bad motherboard? Can I tell if it's the motherboard or processor?
what is the blinking pattern?

I had a similar problem with my Dell, which turned out to be a faulty power supply. The problem came up again, but when I tried a different PSU, I still wouldn't boot. By following your video, I narrowed the problem down to a faulty stick of RAM and I'm back up and running. Thank you for sharing!

Thank you so much for this tutorial to fix PC DEll if orange light! I have a a Optiplex 7020 , very similar set up. I think my problem was with the power connection on the mother board wasn't connected properly. I also saw some dust on the RAM cards when I took them off. So I dusted them off with air spray. All the rest was fine. I put everything back, switched it on, and it's now working! I subscribed to your channel. Thank you again! Do you have a Tipiee account?

Mine does this but it eventually turns off and goes back to normal, but it annoys me so I wanted to do this but long pressing the power button doesn't turn mine off.
Does pressing the power button result in anything?
Like if you were to short press it, does it go to sleep/hibernation/ shut down? (Depending on your settings)
If there is no result, i suspect the power button is spoilt. Its a cheap part & easy to fix.
Yep - good step by step - thanks!

Just want to confirm is your blink pattern exactly the same as in video?
Did you let the residual power discharge? after removing the power cable, press the power button & wait for atleast 5 mins.
If the blink pattern is even slightly different, it means there is something else wrong, related to the motherboard or Power Supply unit etc. the following articles should be helpful in identifying.

Same here, have you found any solution?
I have 7010 Opticplex Desktop in yesterday my nephew knocked the cord out of my outlet and when I cut on my pc it said no boot device
put the RAM in the two white slots for dual channel otherwise it will run in slower single channel mode

I don't understand how/why it was flashing orange and all you did was took the 2 RAM sticks out, booted without them and then put them back in 1 at a time and it booted? So what was the problem that caused it to not boot to begin with if you just took the original RAM sticks out and put the same ones back in again, 1 at a time? Confused :-/

Hey bro
I'm using this exact same model with exact same shape right now at my home from last 1 month.
But today morning it's showing me a problem It's not turning on just flashes all board lights and turns off tham automatically tries to turn on but again it turns all board lights and just goes turn off.
Plz help me to push this issue By The Way I'll not get most of your time coz I'm also a regular repairer myself So just tell me what can be the reason, I know it's a Power issue but it's solving by me 😢
My sell optiplex has the same problem but when I hold down the power button for 10 seconds it doesn’t turn off
Regarding Shutting down, you can instead switch off the power outlet as a last resort.
Or get the power button replaced.
So if the battery is good. So that means that my ram has a problem, so how do I fix that. I need help
No not entirely, cound be issue with something else too like power supply.
Depends on the number of beeps. Please refer this:
