My dads 3 month old Dell desktop took a power shot last night. It appears that the power supply got burned up. The computer was not running at the time. When you try to turn it on now, nothing happens. No lights, nothing. The power supply is a BESTEC Model ATX0300D5WB Is there something I can replace it with that will bolt right in? Do you think the power supply is the problem?
Yes i do believe the power supply is your problem. If your not getting no fan noise, lights etc. Before you call Dell try the following:
Take the power cord off the back of the system.Open the case, You will see a plug on the motherboard that looks like--http://www.karbosguide.com/books/pcarchitecture/images/979.jpg
Unplug that and plug it back in.Plug the power back up to the system and attempt to power it on. If that dont work:
You can contact Dell for a replacement. Especially since the system is under warranty. Or it should be.In most cases they overnight it to you or you can elect to have a tech come to your house to replace it if you feel uncomfortable doing it yourself but its really simple.
Pay close attention to what your unplugging when replacing the power supply. You will have two plugs going to your motherboard alone and then plugs to each device such as your hard drive, cd drives etc.
