Of course it wouldn't be the plug... Maybe a power supply? Look for puffed up capacitors on the motherboard.

I was using my relatively new "home made" desktop computer (about 6 months old) when all of a sudden the monitor went black. I was copying some files to a Lexar Jumpdrive at the time. It is a Gigabyte motherboard, Pentium 4, 3Ghz processor, 1GB OCZ memory. It is not overclocked in any way. Thinking this was just a spontaneous re-boot, I waited but nothing happened. I turned off the power, waited a few seconds and turned it back on. Nothing! Black screen. No BIOS screen, no memory check, nothing. I tried a couple of times and same thing. How do I diagnose this? Any help appreciated. Thanks. Steve -- ---------------------------------------- ALL messages to the list MUST include a descriptive subject.
