Last night, I hard shut down the computer via the power button, it's no indication before or after of any problems. Now that I've come to switch it on...nothing. No fans, no light, nothing. There are 4 complications here, specifically:
So how long do I need to save up for...
- I am broke, and won't be able to afford any new components
- The existing PSU has cables that are stuck in and won't move for anything, so I'd have to cut them to remove it fully
- A modern PSU won't be compatible with my old hard drive, and likely other components (have tried before, SATA plug wouldn't fit)
- The peripherals in the USB slots have their power lights on (a USB hub and Ethernet adapter, specifically)
