PC won’t turn on using any electrical outlet in the house

I brought my pc to micro center and as soon as they plugged it in it turned on and ran phenomenal. We tried different chords, so the issue must have been the outlet. However, I come home and try every outlet in the house but the problem persists of only the case lights turning on. Do I need to call an electrician? If anyone has any advice, I’m desperate at this point.

Thank you, 

DT

    Welcome to the forum, @David_T31. Can you check to see if your system has a small flip switch on the back of your power supply? It should have an I and O. Make sure it's flipped to the I, like in this picture.



    If the switch is already in this orientation, try other devices in the same outlet to see if they power on. You can also check with a trustworthy neighbor or friend to see if you can power the system on in their house before making a call to an electrician.
