It is very rare for a power supply to fry a motherboard. But it is quite common for a power supply to fail. You say you replaced it. Did you replace it with another brand new one made to fit your box? If you have not done that then do that. I think it's very likely that your system will come back to life at that point. Also unplug other things like drives just as a safety precaution until you get the bootloader alive. | |
