PC was working fine then PC turned off the CPU fan stopped turning over heated. opened case let it cool off then turned PC back on but nothing no lights no fans no noise at all.
was wondering if my power supply went out or mother board don't know were to start. checked all the connections they seem to be correct. I didn't build it but don't want to send it back if I don't have to. any help would be appreciated.

What kind of power supply do you have? You can unplug the 24-pin motherboard connector and 4/8-pin CPU connector and do the 'paperclip' test and see if the power supply is completely blown. If the power supply comes on, I would try resetting the motherboard by pulling the CMOS battery (remember to leave all wires unplugged, especially the power cord in the wall).
