I'm typing this from my lappy. An hour or so ago my foot tripped on the powerbar, and my pc got shut down. When it was shutting down I heard a zap, but didn't think much of it.

But after plugging the powerbar back in I tried to boot the comp, but the comp merely comes on for a sec or two and shuts. I don't even get a system beep. When it does come on for a sec or two the back PSU fan spins like a mofo.

I'm thinking it's mos likely a PSU failure. Dammit, that was actually a decent PSU:pinch:

Either point me to a different possible problem (probably false hope) or suggest me another decent PSU.

Antec NeoPower 480 or Seasonic S12 600.
I've run them both and can recommend them without hesitation.

Price?

Yah it's a PSU problem, I borrowed a PSU from neighbor and my PC powered up.
