PC was fine, now trips breaker every time I turn it on?

[cwest318]

I don’t know if this is the right place to put this but I didn’t see anywhere for problems like this. I have my PC in my room and use it to play games often. Today, it was doing just fine, until around 9:00, when the breaker controlling my room tripped and I lost power until I flipped it back. I thought that was the end of it, but now the power goes out from the breaker tripping every time I turn the PC on. Why is this? Do I just need to leave it unplugged for a while? I tried unplugging everything else in my room and still had the same issue on startup. I don’t know what could be causing this. Any help is appreciated.

there is an electrical fault with your PC.
most likely in the power supply.

you could get a new power supply and see how that goes, or take it into a repair shop so they can test the power supply first, before replacing it if needed, then after that, check nothing else has been fried.
