My computer just died, and I won't be on for a pretty long time, so don't be surprised if you don't see me for a while

Someone shot your computer in the chest?

There must be more!
1st question: What OS are you running?

Two more questions:

Is it plugged in to a working wall outlet/power strip?

Have you tried to test your power supply?

It turns on, but it doesn't do anything afterwards

Do you see the UEFI/BIOS boot screen? If so, can you enter the BIOS?

Try reseating your memory. Make sure you unplug your computer from the wall first. Then open the case, remove the RAM, and reinstall it. Sometimes RAM goes bad, and if a computer has nowhere to send its instructions to, it can't execute anything.

And I mean it's really messed up, even not considering that it won't turn on
