my TT POS430 might have just died. i told my computer to restart cuz i just installed something, and it never came back on. i tried the power button and nothing. then i tried flipping the power switch on the back, and noticed the mobo light didnt go off! i unplugged the psu and the light still isnt off after at least 5 minutes since i unplugged the psu. how can that be? does this sound like a psu problem? its the most likely to fail part in my system, though i assumed it could run the second rig in my stats just fine.
 
you told your computer to restart?? lol. i think that model tt psu isent the greatest anyways but i could br wrong.
 
Try a different PSU and see what happens.

so it wasnt better. an hour or so later it shut down again. i finally figured out after unplugging everything that my usb hub was giving power to my mobo. i unplugged it and the mobo led finally went off. cheap japanese crap.
