It was running one moment and then it wasn't. I had my back turned so I can't tell whether there had been a blue screen or something. It won't start at all when I hit the power button. Having opened it open, I can see there's a slight whirl of the CPU fan when I try to start the computer, before it stops again. There's a light burning on the mobo when the power supply is on. I've tried removing one RAM card at a time (of the two), which didn't help.
Before this happened, I noticed my computer was being quite loud of late. I hadn't cleaned it for dust for a good while, yet it stayed load that after I did clean it (though I hadn't done a very thorough job).
Could it be the PSU? Or does the light on the mobo rule that out? Aside of another HD (and this doesn't feel like an HD issue), I don't have any spare parts lying around so I can't replace them one by one.
Thanks.
