I use to have a wireless keyboard with a power button that worked
wonderfully. U just pressed it to switch on the computer. However the
keyboard broke and my new one only has lots of multimedia keys. Is there any
way to remap one of them to switch on the computer.

Thanks.

If you go into the bios settings, you'll an entry for "wake-on" and/or
"power-on". Among these is the ability to power on by the keyboard.
If you enable this, smacking any of the standard keys on the keyboard
will power on the system.

Why not just push the power button on the front of your computer. 6 one
way, half dozen the other :)
