Dead Power Supply?

[Piph05]

I was setting up my computer today after i got home from college. I went to go plug the power cord into the back of the power supply and when i did i heard a faint buzzing noise. Not really sure if that was the power supply or not, but after that my computer would not turn on. No lights lit up or anything. I turned the switch on and off, unplugged the cord, plugged it back in, tried different outlets, nothing. I thought maybe the power cord could have been bad, so i plugged it into an older computer but it worked. So i am thinking that my power supply is dead. Nothing turns on or lights up, so im thinking its the power supply. I have a Antec SmartPower 2.0 SP-500 ATX12V 500W and have only had it for about 8 months. So does this look like a dead power supply? thanks.

I should also add that none of the fans attempt to turn on. Nothing attempts to turn on. Its strange because 2 hours before everything worked fine and then when i set it up again it just stopped working.

Sounds very likely that you have a dead PSU. I recommend that you contact Antec customer support at: http://www.antec.com/newticket.html

Since it is only 8 months old you can get a warranty replacement if you still have your receipt.
