this morning when i woke up i noticed my pc was off... it was running the night before and i left it on (like i always do) So anyway, it wouldn't turn back on this morning. There was a red led on the motherboard lit (not sure if that matters) but nothing would happen when i hit the power button. So i tried unplugging stuff, played around, and eventually just swapped out the psu with another brand new one i had lying around (the new one was for another pc) So after swapping them out i hit the button and again nothing happened. The psu's light on the back is lit orange for standby mode so im pretty sure it's not the psu. (plus it worked before when i tried it)
So now im stuck... I'm guessing it's a motherboard issue? I tried taking out the ram and switching the slots and stuff, and i also only plugged in one harddrive to the psu and pretty much nothing else (besides the motherboard of course) to see if it would at least start but got nothing.
this is getting irritating though for it's my main pc and the motherboard is only a year old. I don't want to buy another one too to find out it's not the problem. I'm hoping I'm maybe missing something dumb but it's just so weird how it completely shut off on me and won't start back up. Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT : Here's some more information. I have an Abit KN8 Ultra motherboard. There are two leds, led1 and led2 on the motherboard. led1 is lit red while the other shows nothing
