must be due to a power spike..... which may have lead to immediate psu shutdown

ok, make sure it's plugged in on both ends. Make sure the outlet you are using is getting power to it (plug something else into it) if it's a power strip just set it aside and plug straight into the wall. if that doesn't work try another outlet. if that doesn't work unplug your power chord and all other peripherals from your pc and hold the power button down for 20 seconds and then plug it back in. if that doesn't work try to clear CMOS with a switch, if there isn't a switch take out the motherboard battery.

what were the temps??? looks like a psu issue

Don't worry guys it was my ups system. It had a faulty outlet. Thank god there is a spare 2 outlets.

Thanks again
