Sounds like the PSU but it could still just be a fuse blown in the PSU.

That sounds expensive to me! On this page for example, there are loads to choose from and there are nine listed for less than £40 but it depends on your requirements.

i think it maybe still worth reparing if it is that,its still i fairly good pc its a 2.4 and 512mb ,to buy that again i think would cost more wouldnt it?

69.99 is not cheap and being pc world I'm sure they'll charge quite a premium on parts as well. A small independant computer shop would be better if you don't want to replace the psu yourself.
