computer just went pop

Hi Guys, well my desk top has been running beautifully, turned it off last night no problems, turned it on this morning it just went pop and that was it, the same noise one gets when a fuse blows.

On closer inspection and looking inside the power supply i found that a small diode of sorts feel out.

There was an small electrical burnt odour but nothing to serious.

It seems that the power supply has shorted or something and decided that today was the day to do it.

Ok because of the buggered power supply would everything still be OK

I have opened computers before and can get around them internally so to speak, so if i could get hold of a new power supply I could fit it.

Any suggestions are appreciated the power supply is a

CMX Smart QC Atx550H switching power supply for a personal computer

Where would one get one of these please

Leon
