Ok, so there I was, playing some RuneScape and on the internet..
..And all of a sudden my PC just shut down. No shutting down notice, nothing.
I thought to myself "Ok, relax", but when I tried turning it back on, it wouldn't turn on.

I unplugged the power cable, replugged it, no success.
Turned off the main switch for 5 min +, no success.
My pc tower is a ThermalTake Tsunami Dream, with the blue light and clear side panel. When I look inside, I can see a tiny green flash (this with the power being on).

Here are the specs (that I think I need to provide):
3.2Ghz CPU.
2Gig RAM.
NVIDIA GeForce 6600 256MB Graphics Card.
_
Any thing else?
Any help would be appreciated, please.
I really want to get back on my PC.

Probably the power supply. If it were some component, the machine would power on and you'd get beeps or some other failure. Try installing a new power supply. Get a higher end one so that it lasts a while.
