He said it locked up on him while he was shutting it down so he pulled the plug out of the wall while the power was still on. Doh!
So it could be the power supply or perhaps even something on the motherboard.
It's an old P3 so I think this was the excuse he was looking for to replace it. It's an IPC, so it's not really worth the effort to fix anyway. (If you've owned one of those pieces of crap before you will know what I'm talking about... nothing but the cheapest parts inside)
With all the dirt inside the case, I'm surprised it worked at all.
