spec in sig,

i was fitting 2x evga 2.5gb 570gtxs fitted them fine put in the power.

noticed the chassis fan was loose replug it in.

the psu back switch was in off position. plugged in power hit the back switch.

pc booted up which was weird and i saw a little spark/flash inside the psu. after a few seconds it turned off.

then PC wouldn't turn on. changed the kettle lead (2mins later) hit the power button boots up turns off within 10 seconds....

turned power on right away nothing. wont turn on leave it a while i can turn it on again but fails again.

i tryed unplugging the 2nd card & unplugging for 4. still the same.

would you say my PSU has died or could it possibly be a short?
any advice would be appericated.
