Question of behalf of a friend

[rexehuk]

Hello all, I've been trying to help someone to night who experienced a localized power cut at his house.

Upon the power coming back, the computer would not turn on... no lights on motherboard etc.

PSU was a Corsair TX650W, I informed him to unplug the PSU for a while and told him to use his Monitor black lead to start the computer up - incase the fuse blew on the other one. The results of this was another cable nackered, and unsuable in his monitor.

PC was bought as Prebuilt system nearly 2 years ago, What are his choices?

It was bought via OcUK, and yeah I have told him to RMA via corsair, he isn't the most technical guy so installing another PSU is prob not an option.

The fact that the PSU blew up a cable upon powering up pc is worrying enough, told him to leave it be for now.
