So this morning I was online registering classes for next semester, and had a steam game downloading in background. Then comp screen goes blank. PC shut down. At first I thought the power in the area had gone out again (already did twice in past week). But, realized the T.V. was still on. No ozone smell, pops, crackles, sparks anything.
This happened over the summer as well. In that case I found it to be the PSU was shot, blown capacitor. Got a new one and everything ran like a charm, till today. This time it seems fine, nor are any blown on mobo. Though this time the led on mobo is gone. Telling me I have no power. My question is how common are power cord failures? Could that possibly be it as everything else seems fine, just at glance anyway. Also I have no spare parts to swap, or friends in the area yet which I can borrow from.
