Maybe you killed the motherboard, maybe not.

Please explain how you blew the original power supply. Was it just dead
when you tried it. Did you drop a screw in the case. Did you short it.

What were you doing to the friends computer? what kind of repair or
upgrade???

What kind of power supply? AT or ATX.

More details if you want help.

Have a nice day!

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
