Most probably...
I've seen two systems getting burned by the PSU, one of them totally, the
other - only (?) the hd, the cd & the mb.
my advice to you - start checking part by part of what's left of that system
on some other.
any part that doesn't work - it's burned...

I was fixing a friends computer and the power supply blew, and I have
since replaced the power supply with a bigger one but all I get are a
few LED lights and a heatsink fan to work. I tried plugging in some
of the hardware into my main machine to test them, like the HD but the
HD seemed to short circuit and the HD control board was so hot that I
got burned when I touched it. Is it possible that when the Power
Supply blew that it sent a major power surge through the whole system
and components that it basically fried them all?? Thanks
