Default Computer Power Supply Problem?

When I turn on my computers power button, the processor fan inside work for 1 sec then stops. The power supply's fan doesn't even turn. The small light on the MOBO is lit when I turn on the power supplys switch. I tried leaving my pc plugged for 1 day, then when I press my power button, (i was actually holding it down), the processor fan is spinning but not FULLY spinning. It is like when you try start a car, but it wont start. So I don't know what the problem is. I tried taking all the video cards, sound cards, 2 of thef 4 of my 1 GB rams, and my cd rom, so that i can rule out lacking of power wattage. Still it does the same thing.

What could be the problem? And yeah the fan of the power supply doesn't spin at all. Im using 360W Powersupply BTW. Thanks

first thing i would do is a take it apart start by unplugging everything then doing a power drain which is once everything is unplugged you hold down the power button on comp for 10 seconds then after that go into the motherboard and look at the fans make sure no dust is getting around them or anything.
