Unplug the mains power for 30 seconds then try again to power it on.

Yeah, it clears power from the PC and resets everything.

Which is a good idea as it sounds like something shorted out.

It was working with the card in wasn't it?

It sounds like the lead/mp3 charger is at fault so unplug that first.

The only reason a PC doesn't turn on is hardware related.

So... unplug what you plugged in when it turned off, unplug the mains for 30 seconds and then try to power it on.
