Hey ppl. Left my computer on all day while i was at work sunday, came back and the computer was off.

Tried restarting it and nothing. I could smell burning from the back of the power supply so i no something serious is up

The computer doesnt boot up whatsoever, the switch at the back of the powersupply lights up when i click it from off to on.

Just any help really, how can i find what has fried etc etc.Baught all the bits off here Nov 2005. Any help at all is appreciated or any steps i can take to see which part/parts are the problem.
 
Well when i smelt the back of the comp where the fan for the hyper power supply is that stunk of burning, but if the power supply has burnt would the button light up when i click the power supply on but still not power the pc up.or does thsi suggest something else.
 
Thanks guys for the help. Took the hyper out today im sure even tho tis a few days ago it happened i can smell bad fumes in it. Look at other components and cant see to see any bad signs.
