Loose power cable ? Broken power connection?

Sounds like your power supply or motherboard might have hit the dummy. Check them both to see if they work. If it ends up the power supply is broken, check all the other hardware which is directly powered by it; the power supply might have spiked other hardware which can cause them to fail aswell.

I had a similar issue several years ago when a capacitor leaked on the motherboard (fatal)
