Hi everyone. Im new here and I have searched through previous posts about power problems but I couldnt see anything that realted specifically to me, so please forgive me if im doing something wrong!
The problem:
I turned on my system yesterday and about halfway through this boot up process I heard a popping sound, like a fuse blowing. The system then died. Thinking that it was a fuse blown in the plug I changed the fuse in the pc power plug and also the 4 way power connector that the pc power is plugged into. The system still wouldnt start. I think that power is getting to the system because the monitor gets its power from the pc and the monitor light is on, but the pc will not start at all. Pressing the power button does nothing, no fans starting, no beeps. Nothing at all.
Does anyone have any ideas what happened and how to fix it? Sorry if any of this is not clear, if anyone has any questions then please let me know and I will answer them as best I can.
Thanks everyone!
