Dads PC broken

[Psymonkee]

Quick copy/paste job but here's what my dad posted elsewhere:

Got a BSOD yesterday and the machine would not restart and appeared dead. This morning we reset the BIOS and a tiny bit of life came back - when the power is first applied the graphics card fan and CPU fan move slightly and a the grahics card light lit briefly. Otherwise it is dead. I had assumed the power supply was dead but there seems to be some power to the board as shown by the above.

Could this be a dead motherboard and what else could I check to find out? I would be grateful for any help on this.

Had little useful feedback but I loaned him my PSU:

Connected his PSU to my motherboard and switched on only for the case fans to barely twitch. On attempting to power up again the fans won't spin until the power cable is removed and re-inserted.

Exactly the same happened with my old PSU.

Is this definitely the motherboard that has failed?

Anyone want to chip in and confirm the failure?
