John,
Have her check to see if there's a mini-rocker style 'master power' switch
built into the back of the CPU chassis, at the power supply and in close
proximity to the main power cord socket. These switches *usually* override
the convenience On/Off/Delay-Off switch that is built into the front of the
box. They're usually marked "0" ('Zero' for 'Off') and "1" (On) and are quite
easy to inadvertently switch from one position to the other when you're
moving/carrying the box around. Be sure to tell her not to touch the recessed
"115-230VAC" switch. That switch does something entirely different! ;-)
regards,
Carl
