My computer shut off after I unplugged a USB mouse, when I tried to turn it on again nothing happened, I am thinking it may be the PSU (hope it's not the mobo). Thanks if anyone can help, specs below.

Vista 32 Bit
E6600 at stock speeds.
Intel D975xBx2 Mobo
Evga 7950GT
OCZ Ram (can't remember which one)
2 DVD drives.
630 Watt RaidMax PSU
Cooler Master Hyper TX CPU cooler.

It is possible either one happened, but it is rare. USB is designed to be able to hotplug. If it shut off as you pull the USB, Then you are probably close to the answer. Do you get any lights or fans now? Raidmax is a poor PSU, no matter what wattage they have. Do you have any parts to tradeout for testing? Even a weak PSU can start up the MOBo, CPU and RAM. PUll all the rest when you test the bare system.

No, I did not get any lights or fans, nothing turns on, I'll go and buy a good PSU soon too, I needed to change it anyways.
