If you can't tell the difference between a broken power supply, motherboard, or ram then you don't know what you're doing.

Really? How can you tell whether it's motherboard or power supply if, say, a box is just completely unresponsive to any attempt to turn it on?

Alternatively, when attempting to boot gets some lights on the motherboard, but nothing else -- apart from a beep code which doesn't actually match any of those given in the Engrish word salad that calls itself a manual -- where would you say the problem lies?
