RIP PC??

Postby ColaBoy » Thu Dec 01, 2011 8:56 pm

I left my PC on, went downstairs, came back up and it was turned off. I tried powering it back up but nothing so I'm guessing its either the m/b or PSU thats blown. I have looked inside at the m/b and when I power it on not even the little green led lights up, on the board, so am I right to assume its more likely its the PSU thats blown? *hopefully*

Yes your probably right but try a different power cord and maybe a different outlet just to be sure. Typically, when a board goes out the fans, hdd, cd/dvd drives will still power up.
