Hi everyone, so my PC wont start and this problem occured just a few hours ago and I think its the PSUs fault, I switch my HDMI Port from GPU to Processor but my PC still wont start so I think that my PSU is dead but I just want to know if it really is the PSUs fault, also I still used my PC yesterday.

Have you removed the mains power cord from the PSU ?
After 10 mins or so it will reset itself and startup, if it is still working.

A dead PC is not exactly a dead PSU unit.
You could certainly have lots of other issues.

Try the very good bench fault tracing guide found in the sticky part first off in the HARDWARE forum.
This will help any newbie to rather quickly determine the problem area on you PC.
You only need a screwdriver and a bag of patience, then you'll soon know the problem.
