Help with PC

Hi All,

My other computer has switched off suddenly and it will not switch back on. Has the power supply blown?

I have checked the fuse and nothing wrong with it

Does it do anything at all when you press the button or is it dead as a doornail? If it's dead as a doornail te PSU has gone. About £15 - £20 for a new one and usually just 4 screws and a few plugs to swap it.

Have you checked the fuse inside the power suplly unit? (normally this is soldered into the board)

Sounds like the fan in the PSU may have packed up.
How long have you had it?

Yes its dead as a doornail mate, doesnt do anything when I try to switch it on.

I have not checked the fuse in the power supply unit.
