My computer seems to have died. First indication was a sudden and complete shutdown this afternoon. It wouldn't restart so I switched it off completely and left it a while. It powered up again no problem later on. Then tonight just after I loaded up WOW the system crashed, the screen went blank as in NO SIGNAL, blank. The sound stuck but the fans still span and the keyboard stayed lit.
It wouldn't reset so I unplugged as before but now, when I turn it on, the fans run, the HDD light comes on for several seconds and thats it. There is no post, no beep and definately no output to bring the monitor to life. Because of the cut out earlier today, I suspect the power supply but it is pretty new as I replaced a dead Hyper recently. I dont understand how if there is power I can't even get to the BIOS. Any suggestions?
 
well I think I've ruled out the Graphics card. Had an old one I stuck in, no change. Going to try the power supply next.
