So I'm having an odd problem. I was playing online (xbox 360) when I noticed my computer just shut down. I thought it was just nothing so I let it restart. Well it seemed to be fine and I kept on gaming. But when I went to go on the computer, I noticed that my mouse wasn't lighting up, but my tower was. I tried to restart it, but nothing. The light on my tower would light up and I can barely hear a noise from my tower. I checked the power supply and the fan in it is going extremely slow.
Well now I can't even keep it on. It keeps shutting off and on.
I checked to see if the motherboard was the problem by taking out the RAM, but it beeped when it started up, so that is not the problem.
Could it be my power supply? I noticed that the green light was on, but the fan is barely moving when the other fans in the PC seem to be going a bit faster. There's power going through it because it turns my External HD on along with my mouse.
But it doesn't really go through to the monitor at all. It's as if the HD isn't working right.
Anyways here's some spec info that I could get:
2.9GB of RAM or so
DVD writable drive
Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx
Type of computer:
Lenovo think centre A55
MT - M: 9265-KQU
S/N: LKNRPX4
Power Supply info:

Thanks for any help guys. I really appreciate it. I had plans to get back into my online work, if I can't fix this soon I may lose that chance.
What I want to know if it's the power supply? Should I buy a new one or what?
