hello everybody, this is my first post. my computer just quit working. its about 4 years old. my computer is a emachines t2865. its been a pretty good computer. i have made some upgrades here and there(dvd burner, more ram, new video card, better hard drive). well I got up and turned on the computer this morning, I hear the fan inside the computer but nothing else happens. I tryed switching the power supply with a spare I had and that didn't work. I also tryed switching back to the original hard drive and that did nothing. I just wanted to know if there is any other trouble shooting I could do at home or is it time for me to take it to the pc repair shop.
