Today i plugged in a usb digital camera into my computer and locked up, so i turned it off and when i tryed to turn it back on it did nothing. Couple days ago when it was booting it got to the boot off my thumb drive and it locked when i turned it off it kind of pulsated on and off, i turned off the power supply and let it sit for a minute turned on the power supply and got it to boot and then today it just didn't turn on.
I unhooked every peice of hardware and then hooked up my 6 fans, 2 old hard drives at 7500 rpms, and my dvd burner to the psu, jumped it with a paper clip and everything came on just fine. I letit for 5 minutes and not a single problem.
I was wondering if my power supply or motherboard have blown out?
