Sorry if this is a bit off-topic.

I came in the other day to find my workstation powered off. Hitting
the power on button had no effect as did using another known working
outlet. I checked all the cables and they seem attached.

I thought my power supply must have died so I got another, screwed it
in and again no joy - no sign of life.

Anybody got any ideas what the problem may be? I'm thinking possibly
the power on switch but that seems a long shot and there seems no easy
way to replace it.

My hardware:

Antec Sonata case.
Gigabyte board.
Core 2 duo

TIA,

Regards,
