    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?

    Yes I would think that it's definitely worth repairing and it could still just be an internal fuse in the PSU. There are various cheaper PSU's on this page and PC Worlds quote was labour + parts. A PSU is quite easy to swap as long as you get the right one! i.e. to suit the motherboard.
