    Default power supply? computer help pls

    A big spark came out the back of my computer and it shut off, and won't turn back on

    Does this mean I need a new power supply? If so...I am WTB!

    you let out the smoke!!!

    thats never a good thing, if your not really computer saavy, id suggest taking it to a shop to get them to do a complete check.

    sometimes when you pop a powersupply, itll damage other components, and its a pain in the ass to figure out what went.
