Hi,

 

The power cable was knocked out the back during the night. It was plugged back in whilst still switched on at the wall which resulted in a sizzling noise and a burning smell. I can no longer get the pc to power on. Both the power cable connection and the pc connection seem charred.

 

Is there anything i can do myself, or just take it to get it fixed?

 

Thanks

Hi and welcome to Extreme Tech Support - Free PC Help.

I am afraid it will require both connections replacing, if a moulded on connector the cable itself will need replacement, the connector on the PC may well be soldered onto the power supply internally, so considering that these all in ones are a nightmare to dismantle, I am afraid it may be best to take it for professional repair.
