HP Pavilion a110y won't boot, CPU fan spins up to full speed

I just re-assembled my old HP a110y desktop, to use it as a server (I want to install Ubuntu on it). I poped an SSD in, and as soon as I plugged it into the wall socket, the CPU fan started blasting air at full speed. I didn't even touch the Power Button. It has a Pentium 4 or something like that, and I don't know how to ender the BIOS either.


NOTE: I selected the Pavilion a400y as the device because iFixit does not have a a110y, probably because it is from the early-mid 2000s

Just wondering how you inserted the SSD?

Usually boards that old had pata not sata ports.

The only info I could find reagrding the model (I think it is your model) was this and it shows that the HDD was UDMA which is pata (parallel ATA)

@jayeff It does have SATA ports, but that is not part of the problem

I could insert a picture if you would like

@jayeff Oh, thank you! Does it use just a normal coin cell battery? Also, I have not used it for about a year, and it did work. I destroyed the old Hard Drive, because I got it with requests that the hard drive data be cleared, and I could not find out how to use Windows XP so I just destroyed it lol.

@ottobunnycoder

Picture would be helpful

Has it worked just recently?

If not has it got a coin cell battery on the motherboard?

If so, disconnect the power to the PSU, remove the coin cell battery, press the power button for 30 seconds to dissipate the residual power on the board to reset the BIOS , disconnect the SSD, reconnect the power and try to get into BIOS.

Press either Del, F2, F10 or Esc and then F10. (the last two are what HP has used for a long time so hopefully it may be applicable).

这个答案有帮助吗?

Thank you! Do you know why the computer seems to turn on right as I plug it in?

@ottobunnycoder

I can't find info about the model but check in BIOS as some used to have (and some still do) a setting that says to turn on when power is detected.

For example if the PC was on and there was a power failure, with most it would turn off and it would stay that way even when power is restored as it take the Power button to be pressed to start again, but those that have the setting (if enabled) would restart as soon as power was restored.
