HELP URGENT! NOOB HERE!

[SuckThumbs]

First of all please pardon my stupid question!
I think my psu is shorted. My computer just shut off itself and I can't on it back. My plug has no problem at all as I tried to plug my charger on the same plug as the USB and it is working fine.
What should I do?

Is the casing fan turning when you press the power button or all dead silent?

ALL dead silent

Update: when I unplug the socket from the psu and plug it again. Then I press the power on button. The led on my fans light up for 0.5 sec and dead again.

2 possibilities:
1. PSU dead
2. short-circuited component prevent PSU from power up.

If you are brave enough, try jump start the PSU:

Else bring rig to Nigel at:

NO beep sound. My comp was on and I Was using my phone halfway suddenly suddenly just shuts off. Can't power on after that. My comp doesn't show any sign of "breaking down" prior to this.

Not sure if it is the same issue but I encountered the same thing recently and RMAed my Mobo B85M Pro 4

Maybe it's the mobo problem too. Too bad I don't have an extra psu to try

Don't be mistaken. Because I open the thread and he says he is offering simple troubleshooting for free. I will surely buy him a meal for his service.

Firstly, no such thing as a stupid question. We are all here to learn

Your issue can be one kf three xkmponents. Cpu, power supply or motherboard. To troubleshoot, you need both as spares to get a conclusive answer.

Power supply. Tk test, take out graphic card and reset xmos. Take out all ram except one stick. Power on. I'd same problem, replace ram with another ram. If can post means pau issue. If same problem can be motherboard or CPU.

Mobo problem: can post but will auto shut down and restart again.

CPU problem. Can in but cannot post.
