Hey, the other day a friend of my dad came to me for computer help, I didn't get to look too much into the computer spec's or anything, it was an older socket a chip all I know, SD ram too..
The problem was as they said, "the computer shut off and didn't turn back on,"
The case panels (left, right, and top) were open when I recived the computer and when I turned it on, all I saw the PSU make a spark from the little vent holes from the PSU.
I just took out a Antec 350 PSU which I had laying around and put that in there, it worked fine.
They just called me saying that the computer won't start again(same problem), and they will bring the computer back to me tomorrow.
I have no idea what's wrong with it, I guess I will have to look into it a little more but do you guys have any idea why this could be happening without much knowledge on the computer itself?
Thanks, and sorry abotu the lack of info on the computer specs.
