    Computer Dead?

    I came in this morning and attempted to fix SRS on my Flight Sim Computer but it won't turn on. I have tried the power button on the tower and the power button on the motherboard itself but to no avail. When the power cable is plugged in and turned on on the PSU, I get some lights on the mother board but it won't fire up. I'm guessing it's the power supply but does anyone have any other thoughts? I have made no adjustments on this computer since I built it about 1.5 years ago, it's just stopped. Thanks!

    Any fault lights or digits display? Typically there is fault code readouts in the manual.

    None that I can see, just some faint red lights that I read can normally be on even if the power supply is dead because it is a low 10-15 watt pull.

    Certainly sounds like a PSU fault if there are no post error codes/beeps and the system doesn't even start to power up.
