Hi Kevin!
The usual pc power supplies have a fuse! Try check this component at firs=
t.
Later you can examine the board and parts to searching any exploded devic=
e .
If anything was found try at final clean the board (with the power supply
OFF). Many, many and many times I have heard cases where the power supply
come back to "LIFE" later a good cleanance.


Sorry my bad english. I hope you have understood me.

Good Luck!
