Is there any simple test to eliminate one of those possibilities (for a
completely dead computer - no lights, no fans, no hard disk activity,
nothing)?

I have read that it is possible to check the power supply by
temporarily
shorting two pins together, but I don't know which two pins, and I
don't
know if that will work without any load on the power supply. I do
have a
voltmeter, however.
