So I shorted my computer.....

.....and now I fear for my computer because when I try to turn it on, everything spins up but the boot up process does not begin. Did I just pop the fuse in my Corsair 520HX? (aka, need to get a new PSU).

I'll wait for some replies before tell the tale of my stupid mistake to ensure I am not making mountains out of molehills.

If you just popped the fuse on the Corsair, things wouldn't "spin up." The fuse is on the primary side of the PSU, so if it pops nothing powers up.

I was wondering what would happen if the fuse popped. I never actually gave much thought to it. Thanks for the help. So looks like my problems are worse than I imagined.

Motherboard, more than likely.

Motherboard or ram take stuff out of the case and try it on a desk try to use extra parts of everything you can to narrow i down to whats bad.
