Computer Won't Turn On - Internal Power Supply Problem?

My computer won't turn on, and I've tried everything to try to reboot it. I unplugged everything, but it won't turn back on. It's a desktop, and a few years old, but up until yesterday, it worked fine. Whenever I plug it in, a green light right beneath the plug starts flashing, and quits a minute or so after I unplug it. It's attached to the Internal Power Supply, but I haven't taken that out or touched it - I don't want to break it. Recommendations?

    We in usa of america have it staggering. If we change that to the incorrect place, the voltage drops to being too low, and we don't wreck something. on the ecu universal, the voltage turns into too intense on the incorrect placing, and it breaks. That pop you heard maximum in all risk potential a sparkling capacity furnish would be mandatory. Do your self a want and make confident it quite is the comparable capacity furnish. with any success in any respect, that's the only difficulty. It available to have buddy the mummy board to boot. in all risk not, palms crossed.

    take out the power supply and put in a new. one.... its not hard at all. just unplug everything connected to the power supply and make sure the new supply reconnects with everything.

    something similar happened to my old computer. it could be a loose cord or what happened to me was that the PSU (power supply unit) failed and i had to replace it, was cheep to replace and easy to install. worked fine after that.
