Today, before the holiday festivities, my boyfriend was using his computer and used Windows to shut it down before he left. But when we returned, nothing starts. No system fans come on. No LEDs. There's no sign of power.
I'm not sure how a cable would become unattached to the motherboard/PSU internally since nobody touched the computer after we left.
I'm assuming it is the PSU since the system shows no signs of life at all, but someone may have a unique experience or there may be something else I am missing.
I built my boyfriend's computer 3 years ago, here are the components:
Mobo: ASUS P5Q PRO
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E8500
GPU: Sapphire ATI Radeon HD4850
PSU: OCZ ModXStream Pro 700W
Seagate 500GB HDD
Seagate 300GB HDD
RAM: 2x 2GB Corsair XMS2
Windows 7
TLDR:
Shut down with Windows, now computer won't start at all (no fans, lights, etc.), suspect borked PSU. Thoughts?
Thanks for the help!
