pc blew up? HELP!

[richyp]

dumb [****] thing to do but i was changing the CPU fan from the power supply input to the motherboard input when the computer was running, ive done it for years and never had a problem....... this time i saw a small spark and the screen went dead. i cant even turn the pc on.

has just the PSU died? or motherboard aswell? any other parts affected?

ive just spend £1200 on this pc only had it 24 hours. DS4 + E6600. omfg.

OOPS!

Pull the mains cable from the psu for 30 seconds or so and it may work ok after, just a small short like that will often simply trip the psu, removing the mains will allow it to reset.

Fingers crossed for you.

cheers mate yer thats *** i did. thx a lot!!

may i be the first to say that that was a dumb thing to do. if you have a decent psu it should have not harmed other components.

i agree, very dumb. im very lucky its working now.
