So I'll say it again just incase, so I try and start my computer, and the fans will start going, but when it turns on, nothing seems to be loading, the screen stays off (the lights still on, as if its asleep though) as if it doesn't even load anything up, just turns on, and stays there, i have an Emachine c6537. So if anyone has any suggestions feel free to let me know, Much appreciated!

Btw, it was working 2 days ago (feb 23), and nothing really seemed to be wrong with it :)

Looks like a faulty power supply unit. It delivers 12 volt for the fans but not the lower voltage which is needed to run the electronics.
