I have a very serious situation here. My power supply fun is dead and I can smell like something is burning. This happened when I powered up computer. I heard a loud sound and then felt this burning smell and could hear power supply fun working. Can you tell me what has happened to my computer?

As far as I can tell your power supply just died. You will have to buy a new power supply and do not try to power up computer while this power supply is still in it. You can consider your self lucky if nothing else died in your computer because power supply have nasty habit to destroy something else in computer when the die.
