      I assume near the computer, as in the case? She knocked it over?
      Try resetting everything, memory especially. Unpower it, reset the BIOS via jumper, and try booting.

            Yes.

            If your system doesn't have a jumper you could always remove the battery and hold a paperclip across the terminal for 10 seconds to achieve the same effect.

                  What brand of PSU did that PC have??

                  I once had a Gigabyte GA-8i848P-G motherboard that did the same thing as that. Computer froze and blanked out on a word document then on restart there was no video on boot, but fans spun.

                  Found out that the Generic DEER brand PSU killed the southbridge because the 5v line pumped out too much voltage due to badcaps in the PSU.
