Did you experience any problems with the computer before this occured?Like maybe a power out?

Have you tried another power cord?
Could you open her up and check all connections inside are secure?

What do you mean by multiple power adaptors?
Do you have a spare power supply you could test this computer with?

Then it proberly is not the power cables.
Is this pc still under warranty?

Is it possible you could open her up and check all connections are secured in the correct places?
