I installed a new computer game yesterday. As I was playing it, the computer did a hard reboot seemingly at random. After it restarted normally, I went back to play the game. The computer did another hard shutdown (apparently for the same reason as the first time), but it didn't reboot. I've been unable to boot the computer since. When I press the power button, the case lights flash and the fans start spinning, but this lasts probably less than a second. The motherboard light is on. I've tried unplugging/switching off the PSU, unplugging the 24 pin connector from the motherboard, and disconnecting various peripherals, but I seem to be stuck. Is it likely that either the PS or MB is damaged (or both)? I'd appreciate any suggestions.
