Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Technical Questions PC is DEAD. Please help

I've got a barebones kit PC that is 2 1/2 years old. running XP home (w/SP2). I turned it on last night and it was slow, so I turned it off to do a restart.

After everything shut down, I hit the power button and.....nothing. Not a whimper. Stone cold dead. I check all of the wires/plugs and everything is plugged in. I am typing this on my MAC, which is hooked up on my netwrok in the same room and it is working fine.

SInce I don't even get a hum or a fan noise when I hit the power button, I am guessing the (probably cheap) power supply went.

I would certainly appreciate any input. I can find my way around a PC, but I won't be instructing any classes soon.
