Dead motherboard?

[phalanx]

My computer was a bit laggy, so I restarted it. Mid restart the power cut out for a few seconds. It came back but there was no power led showing. Black screen. Dead mobo? Or no?

Start looking at your Power Supply. Any smells or scents that seemed odd?

If you have a spare machine around with a compatible PSU, give it a shot.

Specs of your equipment will also help.

You may want to make sure everything is plugged in tightly. And consider swapping out your PSU.

Hosed the OS, throwing a new one on, then BIOS Flash. *Crosses Fingers*
