My assembled PC is 10 days old. It suddenly went off and checked the power cord and tried, it went on for a second and then once again went off. I am not a techi and require your help to understand the problem.

Are you sure the case brand is Zebronix? Can't even find a reliable link to them. Given that, my first thoughts are that it's a dodgy power supply.
Completely useless? I can always be used as a bad example.

I also suspect the power supply. What brand is it? Wattage? How many amps on the +3.3v, +5v & +12v rails?
