I purchased a desktop PC a little over a year ago. Today I was using it and suddenly the power went out only for the PC. That outlet works fine.
Is this a short circuit ? I press the power button and there is no response.

Now the power supply cord on the computer side, not the wall, is shorting out ?.

By the way, there was no burning smell of any kind.

> The power supply cord on the computer side is shorting out ? I got a light like that

I'm sure you already did, but look at that area first. If you see sparks on the back of the computer where the power cord is plugged in, the cord side and the PC power supply side should be charred black. Is the blade of the 3-contact plug on the power supply side charred and slightly melted? If so, it is probably due to a short circuit on the primary side inside the power supply (110V side). If so, the only way is to replace the power supply unit. If the Warranty is still valid, it will be repaired or replaced free of charge.

In the meantime, try wiping the burnt residue off the side of the unit with cutip and alcohol, then get another new power cord, connect it, and turn it on. If it sparks again or doesn't turn on at all, give up completely.

However, it will be very difficult to process the software and data you were using until then. You can ask a repair shop to do it, but the repair shop that understands Japanese and can handle Japanese data will ( be under your feet ) and the repair cost will be very high.

Type in your PC model name and power supply on eBay & and you will find most of the parts. The price is only a few tens of dollars, and even an amateur can easily replace it. Just take a picture of the power supply before you remove it and connect the new one the same way. If it still doesn't work, I would probably replace it.
