[Shop-talk] Dead PC

[Ronnie Day]

I'd suggest looking on YouTube for PC troubleshooting videos. Maybe
Tomshardware, and Newegg, too. Lots of info out there. Lots of questions,
the first of which is do you get any indication of power at all? Doesn't
sound like it. If the PSU has an easily accessible fuse, check it first
thing.

I lost the PSU and the MoBo in a Dell desktop when a power transformer a
couple of blocks from our place blew. Fortunately nothing else was effected
and the PC was under (parts) warranty, but I went through three PSUs and 2
MoBos before I got it running again.

Hopefully you'll have better luck,
Ron
