It's a compac computer. I plugged the moniter cord into the tower power plug and then I plugged it into the surge protector a spark came out and it smelled burnt. I unplugged it right away and found the right cord and plugged that in and now it won't turn on. The moniter cord is ok cuz the moniter turns on.

So basically the power cord for both?
First thing to get power on the computer would be the PSU but really if the power cords have identical connectors they should work for either. The spark indicates a short and most likely the PSU.
