Well...we cant tell...cause we dont have access to the board...
O come on I know you guys here all have that super elite extra mega zoomy vision

Are there any fans running when you power up...(or try too)
No, nothing does anything when i plug it in and try to power up.

By the way...power supplies blow all the time
Now i know this is isn't the easiest question to answer, but how long on average should a power supply last? My old computer is about 2 years older than this one and its still running fine, well as fine as it can running Windows ME.

Power supplies are cheap...compared to a board..
While this may be true, i would almost hope it was the mobo and not the ps because i was looking into getting a new computer in the near future anyway, and this way i can just carefully ripp out the ram, hdd, ps,vid card, and anything else that i could/would still use and just buy a new mobo and have an instant franken-pewter.
