It happened after moving computer from my
house to another. I was very careful and was
certain to not drop or bump it at all.

Now when i press the power button nothing
happens at all. No fans moving or anything. I
have reseatead everything but CPU and
replugged in all cords.

This system was built 3 days ago and was
working fine untill now. What could be the
problem? Im guessing either dead mobo or psu?

I really need this fixed soon becuase it has my
unprinted college entrance essay on it and is due
in two days!

Thanks

Try another appliance in the power point you are using.

There might be a switch on the power supply that you nudged off.

I went to bestbuy and got a new temporary psu and found out that was the problem. Funny thing is the one that broke was 3 days old!

Thanks for you help
