But like I said, after trying everything else, as a last resort, before you throw it in the bin, put in freezer. Nothing to lose.

Tell me, how long do you throw it into the freezer for?
Until you get a nice half inch of frost over all the electrical components?
Then do you allow it three days to de-frost, dry out and then insert it into your failed computer or do you bung it straight in from the freezer and listen (if your lucky) for the fizz of your PSU dying or do you give it a week in the freezer, then you can hear not just your PSU but the local sub-station go ear splittingly bang!
I have a theory, put it in an oven on gas mark 8 wait until you either,
A/ smell the plastic components start to overheat
or
B/wait until your smoke alarm goes off.
I'm sure the results will be of as much use as freezing the damned thing!
