I've had the computer for about a year, and i leave it on for a couple of days at a time, but about 2 weeks ago i smelled burning plastic coming from it so i shut it down, and made sure id shut it down after each use. Just on wednesday i turned it on and fell asleep for about 3 hours and woke up and smelled burning plastic again so i went and checked my computer and it had shut its self off. so i waited a little bit and turned it on and it worked for about 5 minutes and shut its self off again. so i waited a day and now when i turn it on the leds light up and the processor fan spins for less than a second then they shut off. I was wandering if the power supply is the problem because when it shut its self off the power supply was really hot.
