Hello....
I had plugged in my mp3 player to the usb port on my pc and a few minutes later there was a warning about a power surge and that the usb had exceeded power usuage or something...I couldnèt click on the more info box because my mouse stopped working too. I went to reset the pc and now it doesnt turn back on. Did I kill the computer...I think i may have used the wrong cord for the mp3 player....Yikes. Any suggestions on what i can do
Thank you !!!!

Maybe your PSU went south with the birdies.

Think you can try a spare just to be sure?

it seems the power supply is working....i cant get the computer to actually start up. Ive been told that it could be the motherboard. Could it be just the port. When i press on the power button, the light comes on and the fan ,then it seems that the moniter just shuts off. Hmm...i imagine a new computer would be cheaper eh.

If it's a front USB port that you connected the mp3 player to, then what I suggest you do is open the side panel and remove the connector for the front USB from the motherboard. Of course doing this with the computer turned off.
