Computer Went Dead After a BSOD
1- I formatted the hard drive and filled it with zeros using Seagate utility floppies
2- I started installing Windows XP, everything went file until it said Installing third party software that is when the BSOD appeared, the computer started dumping the memory
3- Shortly it was stuck going nowhere so I tried to manually shutting it off and after that nothing came out, it is just sitting like a piece of metal with no lights upon trying to start, no fan noise.
3-To rule out other things that I know I thoroughly checked the electrical outlet, and power cables and everything is working just fine but the computer is not powering at all
Could it be the power supply went dead or is it the start button itself went corrupt?
Also my Windows XP CD is stuck there, how could I retrieve it without the computer powering?
Thanks
